Popis: | The crystal structure of ammonium selenate has been studied by means of single crystal x-ray and neutron diffraction with the purpose of the refinement of hydrogen positions. The refined hydrogen positions obtained by single crystal neutron diffraction show that N-H bond lengths form a regular tetrahedron in an ammonium ion. The single crystal x-ray diffraction data show that N-H bond lengths are shorter than those obtained by neutron diffraction and are not equal between themselves. Thus, the comparison of the results of x-ray and neutron diffraction allows one to suggest that the shorter N-H bond lengths obtained by x-ray diffraction reflect the distribution of the electron charge density of ammonium ions within the (NH4)2SeO4 crystal lattice. |
