Materials Data on NaNO by Materials Project

Abstract

NaNO crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Na1+ sites. In the first Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded in a see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.38–2.46 Å. In the second Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.37–2.83 Å. There are two inequivalent N1+ sites. In the first N1+ site, N1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The N–O bond length is 1.35 Å. In the second N1+ site, N1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The N–O bond length is 1.36 Å. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to five Na1+ and one N1+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to five Na1+ and one N1+ atom.
