Answer:
Ionic compounds generally have more complicated structures than metals. This is probably because:
(1) There are now at least two kinds of particles in the lattice, generally of different sizes.
(2) The cations attract the anions, but like ions repel one another. The structure must balance both types of forces.
(3) Many ions (e.g. nitrate, carbonate, azide) are very non-spherical in shape. They will thus pack differently in different directions.
One simple ionic structure is:
Cesium Chloride
Cesium chloride crystallizes in a cubic lattice. The unit cell may be depicted as shown.
(Cs+ is teal, Cl- is gold).
