Materials Data on LiCl by Materials Project
LiCl is Halite, Rock Salt structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to six equivalent Cl1- atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing LiCl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Li–Cl bond lengths are 2.58 Å. Cl1- is bonded to six equivalent Li1+ atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing ClLi6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°.
