Answer:

The radius ratio of NaCl (rNa+/rCr−) lies in the range 0.414 - 0.732 . Hence, is has coordination number of 6. i.e.c octahedral arrangement. On the other hand, the radius ratio of CsCl (rcs+/rcl− lies in the ranhge 0.732 -1 .0 Hence, it has a coordination number of 8. i,e. it has a body -centred cubic arrangement.
