Materials Data on Hg2N by Materials Project
Hg2N is high (beta) Cristobalite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Hg+1.50+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent N3- atoms. Both Hg–N bond lengths are 2.23 Å. N3- is bonded to four equivalent Hg+1.50+ atoms to form corner-sharing NHg4 tetrahedra.
