Materials Data on Na2Si3O7 by Materials Project
Na2Si3O7 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Na1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.77 Å. There are two inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing SiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.78–1.85 Å. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent SiO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 21–57°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.60–1.68 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na1+ and two equivalent Si4+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Na1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Na1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Na1+ and two Si4+ atoms.
