Chapter 16, Problem 16.75

(choose chapter or problem)

The CsCl structure is a simple cubic array of chloride ions with a cesium ion at the center of each cubic array (see Exercise 61). Given that the density of cesium chloride is 3.97 g/cm3, and assuming that the chloride and cesium ions touch along the body diagonal of the cubic unit cell, calculate the distance between the centers of adjacent Cs1 and Cl2 ions in the solid. Compare this value with the expected distance based on the sizes of the ions. The ionic radius of Cs1 is 169 pm, and the ionic radius of Cl2 is 181 pm.
