The ratio of anion radius to cation radius of a crystal is 10 : 9.3. Then, the coordination number of the cation in the crystal is
2
6
4
8
D.
8
Given, the radius ratio of anion to cation =10:9.3
The radius ratio of cation to anion
=9.3:10
=0.93
When the cation to anion ratio lie between 0.732 to 1.00, the coordination number is 8. Thus, the coordination number ofthe cation in the crystal is 8.
