How can we convert CsCl structure into NaCl structure and vice versa?

Open in App
Solution

Increase in pressure increases the coordination number and increase in temperature lowers the coordination number.

For example:

On increasing the temperature of CsCl structure coordination number decreases from
8 : 8 to 6 : 6

On subjecting the NaCl structure to high pressure, it will increase coordination number from 6: 6 to 8: 8.
