Materials Data on BaAg2(HgO2)2 by Materials Project
BaAg2(HgO2)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/nbm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba2+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent O2- atoms. All Ba–O bond lengths are 2.92 Å. Ag1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent O2- atoms. Both Ag–O bond lengths are 2.12 Å. Hg2+ is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.05 Å) and two longer (2.90 Å) Hg–O bond lengths. O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, one Ag1+, and two equivalent Hg2+ atoms.
