The coordination number of a constituent particle (atom, ion or molecule) in a crystal is the number of constituent particles which are the immediate neighbours of that particle in the crystal. In ionic crystals, coordination number of an ion is the number of oppositely charged ions surrounding that particular on in fcc arrangement of NaCl crystal, Cl- ions occupy the corners and face centres of the cube while Na+ ions are present at the edges centres and body centres and both have coordination number of 6.
