The material described by Na2SO3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic C222_1 space group. There are two inequivalent Na sites. In the first Na site, Na(1) is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two equivalent O(2) atoms. In the second Na site, Na(2) is bonded in a see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms. S(1) is bonded in a T-shaped geometry to one O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Na(2) and one S(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Na(1), one Na(2), and one S(1) atom. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
