A solid compound XY has NaCl structure. If the radius of the cation is 100 pm, the radius of the anion (Y-) will be

  1. 275.1 pm
  2. 322.5 pm
  3. 241.5 pm
  4. 165.7 pm

Answer

(3) 241.5 pm

Solution

In the NaCl structure the cation occupies octahedral voids (coordination number 6).

For an octahedral void: r+r- = 0.414

r- = r+0.414 = 1000.414

= 241.5 pm

Answer: (3)
