The 19 pages that link to Coordination number, each with the reason it gives.

• AllotropyRelated: Different allotropes can give atoms different numbers of nearest neighbors.

• Rock salt structureRelated: Each ion in this structure has six nearest neighbors.

• Atomic radiusRelated: Neighbor counts and geometry affect radius assignments in solids.

• Cubic crystal systemRelated: Cubic lattice geometry determines characteristic nearest-neighbor counts.

• Hydration shellRelated: It describes the number of waters directly coordinated to an ion.

• Isomorphous substitutionRelated: A substitute must fit the coordination environment of the site it occupies.

• Frenkel defectRelated: Local coordination helps determine whether an ion can fit into an interstitial site.

• Silicon–oxygen tetrahedronRelated: Fourfold coordination of silicon by oxygen defines the tetrahedral unit itself.

• X-ray absorption spectroscopyRelated: It is one local structural quantity inferred from fine-structure analysis.

• Covalent radiusRelated: Local bonding environment can affect measured distances and reported radii.

• Fluorite structureRelated: Fluorite gives cations eight anion neighbors and anions four cation neighbors.

• Interstitial defectRelated: Local coordination helps describe the crowded environment around an interstitial atom.

• Metal oxideRelated: Different coordination environments give metal oxides distinct crystal structures.

• Vacancy defectRelated: Removing an atom changes the local coordination around its former site.

• Wigner–Seitz cellRelated: The cell’s faces correspond to neighboring lattice sites, making their coordination geometrically apparent.

• Atomic packing factorRelated: Neighbor contacts constrain how spheres fit together in common crystal structures.

• Caesium chlorideRelated: Each ion in the ideal CsCl structure has eight nearest neighbors of opposite charge.

• Granular packingRelated: Contact count helps determine whether a packing can resist applied forces.
