Cr2Ta is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. Ta(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ta(1) and twelve equivalent Cr(1) atoms. Cr(1) is bonded to six equivalent Ta(1) and six equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing CrTa6Cr6 cuboctahedra.
