BaCl2 is Cotunnite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–Cl bond distances ranging from 3.12–3.71 Å. There are two inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded to four equivalent Ba2+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing ClBa4 tetrahedra. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Ba2+ atoms.
