In the sodium chloride lattice, the number of chloride ions surrounding each sodium ion is called the coordination number of the sodium ions. What are the coordination numbers for the sodium ions and the chloride ions in the sodium chloride lattice?
- Asodium ions 4, chloride ions 6
- Bsodium ions 6, chloride ions 4
- Csodium ions 6, chloride ions 6
- Dsodium ions 8, chloride ions 6
