Question

in a Cscl structure, the no. of cs+ions that occupy second nearest neighbour location of a cs+ ions is
A. 6
B. 8
C. 12
D. 4​

Answer 1

In the crystal of CsCl, the nearest neighbors of each Cs ion are eight chloride ions.
CsCl has body centered cubic structure with chloride ions forming simple cubic arrangement and caesium ions present at body center.
Answer: option is B

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer to this question is 8.

Explanation:

Given - In a Cscl structure, the no. of cs+ions that occupy the second nearest neighbor location of a cs+ ions.

To Find - Choose the correct answer.

In a Cscl structure, the no. of cs+ions that occupy the second nearest neighbor location of a cs+ ions is  8 .

The inorganic compound CsCl (cesium chloride or cesium chloride) has the formula CsCl. In a number of specialized applications, this colorless salt is a key source of cesium ions. Each cesium ion is coordinated by eight chloride ions in its crystal structure, which is a prominent structural type. Cesium chloride is a mineral that dissolves in water. When heated, CsCl transforms into NaCl. Cesium chloride is found in carnallite, sylvite, and kainite as impurities.
