Title: Materials Data on MgO by Materials Project

Abstract

MgO is Tungsten Carbide structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing MgO6 pentagonal pyramids. All Mg–O bond lengths are 2.16 Å. O2- is bonded to six equivalent Mg2+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing OMg6 pentagonal pyramids.
