English: The
crystal structure of sodium chloride, NaCl, a typical ionic compound, emphasising the
octahedral environment of one
sodium cation, Na+, illustrated as a __ purple sphere and one chloride anion, Cl−, illustrated as a __ green sphere. The yellow stipples represent the
electrostatic force in each ionic bond. The crystal lattice formed by multiple such octahedra is shown to the left.
