Test: Number of Atoms in a Unit Cell & Closed-Packed Structures (Old NCERT) - Question 8

A crystalline structure has radius ratio (r+/r-)  in the range of 0.225 - 0.414. The coordination number and arrangement of anions around the cations are:

Detailed Solution for Test: Number of Atoms in a Unit Cell & Closed-Packed Structures (Old NCERT) - Question 8

If the radius ratio is between 0.225 and 0.414, it will have a tetrahedral void. The derivation of this actually takes place in reverse where we assume a tetrahedral void and arrive at the value, but the converse also holds true. A tetrahedral void naturally means there are 4 surrounding atoms. So, coordination number will be 4.
