NaCl has a cubic unit cell. It is best thought of as a face-centered cubic array of anions with an interpenetrating fcc cation lattice (or vice-versa). The cell looks the same whether you start with anions or cations on the corners. Each ion is 6-coordinate and has a local octahedral geometry.
Lattice Type: Face-Centered
Alternate Names: Halite, rock salt, sea salt, table salt, salt
Isostructural Compounds: MgO, TiO, TiC, LaN, NaI; KCl, RbF, AgCl, SrS
Cystal System: Cubic
