The crystal structure of zirconium trichloride was determined from X-ray diffraction patterns. Zirconium trichloride belongs to the [Formula: see text]space group. The dimensions of the main cell at room temperature are: a = 5.961 ± 0.005 Å and c = 9.669 ± 0.005 Å.The density of zirconium trichloride was measured and gave the value of 2.281 ± 0.075 g/cm3 while, from the X-ray calculations, the value was found to be 2.205 g/cm3.
