Title: Materials Data on Na2SO4 by Materials Project

Abstract

Na2SO4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Na1+ sites. In the first Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NaO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent SO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent NaO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.31–2.56 Å. In the second Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.41–3.02 Å. S6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent NaO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 41–51°. There is two shorter (1.49 Å) and two longer (1.50 Å) S–O bond length. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Na1+ and one S6+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four Na1+ and one S6+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three Na1+ and one S6+ atom.
