Inverse spinel structures have a different cation distribution in that all of the A cations and half of the B cations occupy octahedral sites, while the other half of the B cations occupy tetrahedral sites. An example of an inverse spinel is Fe 3 O 4, if the Fe 2+ (A 2+) ions are d 6 high-spin and the Fe 3+ (B 3+) ions are d 5 high-spin.
Hercynite is a spinel of regular symmetry and normal cation distribution, but some disorder occurs in its structure. It consists of ferrous (Fe 2+) ions and aluminium ions (Al 3+); however some ferric ions (Fe 3+) may be located in the structure of hercynite. [5] Melting point of this mineral is inbetween 1,692–1,767 °C (3,078–3,213 °F). [6]
Maghemite (Fe 2 O 3, γ-Fe 2 O 3) is a member of the family of iron oxides.It has the same formula as hematite, but the same spinel ferrite structure as magnetite (Fe 3 O 4) and is also ferrimagnetic.
The mineral ceylonite has the chemical composition of (Mg, Fe 2+) Al 2 O 4, putting it into a group of minerals known as the spinel group, or the oxide spinels. The oxide spinels have a formula of the model [A][B] 2 O 4; where [A] is commonly Fe 2+, Mg 2+, or Mn 2+, and [B] is Fe 3+, Al 3+, or Cr 3+. It is an iron-rich variety of the spinel ...
The following table shows a series of Gibbs free energy of binding between benzene and several cations in the gas phase. [ 2 ] [ 6 ] For a singly charged species, the gas-phase interaction energy correlates with the ionic radius , r i o n {\displaystyle r_{\mathrm {ion} }} (non-spherical ionic radii are approximate).

Pyroxene minerals are named according to the chemical species occupying the X (or M2) site, the Y (or M1) site, and the tetrahedral T site. Cations in Y (M1) site are closely bound to 6 oxygens in octahedral coordination. Cations in the X (M2) site can be coordinated with 6 to 8 oxygen atoms, depending on the cation size.
In condensed matter physics and inorganic chemistry, the cation-anion radius ratio can be used to predict the crystal structure of an ionic compound based on the relative size of its atoms. It is defined as the ratio of the ionic radius of the positively charged cation to the ionic radius of the negatively charged anion in a cation-anion compound.
