Abstract: | The Crystal Structure of CsTcO4 CsTcO4 crystallizes orthorhombic with a = 5.727, b = 5.921 and c = 14.34 Å. Z = 4, space group Pnma (Nr. 62, I.T.). The metal positions were refined by single crystal data, the oxygen positions first determined: the CsTcO4 structure is a slight distortion of the scheelite arrangement (parameters: see text). The MADELUNG Part of Lattice Energy, MAPLE, ?Mean Effective Ionic Radii”?, MEIR, and Effective Coordination Numbers, ECoN, are calculated and discussed. |
