In A , there are zigzag chains and dimers additionally connected via oxonium ions. Complex chains consisting of cyclic trimers (two HSO₄^? and one H₂SO₄) are present in B . In structure C , several parallel chains are connected to columns due to the greater content of H₂SO₄. Sodium cations show a distorted octahedral coordination by oxygen in all three structures, the NaO₆ octahedra being “isolated” (connected via SO₄ tetrahedra only) in A . Pairs of octahedra with common edge form Na₂O₁₀ dimeric units in C . Such double octahedra are connected via common corners forming zigzag chains in B .
