QNEET-2016-Ch-1010: NEET 2016 Chemistry - Class 12 NEET-2016-Ch-1010 Solution: The ionic radii of \(A^+\) and \(B^-\) ions are \(0.98…
The ionic radii of and ions are and . The coordination number of each ion in AB is 8 2 6 4
Multiple Choice Options
- A 8
- B 2
- C 6
- D 4
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
From radius ratio, r + r _ = 0.98 _ 10 _ 10 1.81 _ 10 _ 10 = 0.541
It lies in the range of 0.414 to 0.732 hence
coordination number of each ion will be 6 as the
compound will have NaCl type structure i.e.,
octahedral arrangement.
