Which compound has antifluorite structure?

Which compound has antifluorite structure?

Options

  1. AMnO4\mathrm{MnO}_4
  2. BNa2O\mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{O}
  3. CNa2O2\mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{O}_2
  4. DLi2O2\mathrm{Li}_2 \mathrm{O}_2

Correct answer

B. Na2O\mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{O}

Step-by-step solution

Anti-fluorite structure refers to an anion array with tetrahedral cations and the compound having A2BA_2 B formula have anti-fluorite structure. So, Na2O\mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{O} has an anti-fluorite structure in which Na+\mathrm{Na}^{+} ions occupy all the tetrahedral voids and O2−\mathrm{O}^{2-} occupy half of the cubic holes.
