Question

Shown below is the crystal structure of Strontium Fluoride (SrF?). Answer the following: (a) What is the coordination number of the anions? What about the cations? (b) On the basis of atomic radii, what crystal structure do you predict for SrF? (the ionic radius for Sr²? and F? is 0.118 nm and 0.113 respectively)?
