Question

crystal lattice of CsCl​

Answer 1

CsCl has a cubic structure that consists of an infinite chain of ions. The Cs (or Cl) ions sit at the eight corners of the cube and the Cl (or Cs) sit at the center of the cube (thus it is NOT a body-centered lattice since that requires the SAME ion to occupy the edges and center). The CN of both cation and anion is 8.
