Answer» Answer is (c) 6 The radius of Ag+ ion is 126pm and of I- ion is 216pm. The coordination number of Ag+ ion is: ρ = rcation/ranion = 126/ 216 = 0.58 Radius ratio lies in the range 0.414 – 0.732, so has coordination number 6 or 4 according to the table. Since none of the options is 4, so the answer is 6 |
