Answer: The coordination number of Cu+ is two while the coordination number of O2- is 4
Explanation:
The coordination number of an ion in a unit cell arrangement refers to the number of immediate neighboring ions of opposite charge surrounding a particular ion. In Cu2O, the charge on Cu is +1 and the charge on the oxide ion is -2. Each copper I ion is surrounded by two oxide ions while each oxide ion is surrounded by four copper I ions in each unit cell.
