BiVO4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcn space group. V(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to two equivalent O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms. Bi(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent O(1) and four equivalent O(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one V(1) and two equivalent Bi(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one V(1) and two equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
BiVO4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcn space group. V(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to two equivalent O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms. Both V(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 1.81 Å. Both V(1)-O(2) bond lengths are 1.71 Å. Bi(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent O(1) and four equivalent O(2) atoms. There are two shorter (2.37 Å) and two longer (2.39 Å) Bi(1)-O(1) bond lengths. There are two shorter (2.57 Å) and two longer (2.66 Å) Bi(1)-O(2) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one V(1) and two equivalent Bi(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one V(1) and two equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
