Clathrate I-like mixed network unit cell

Only the oxygen atoms are shown. This is the hypothetical hydrate-I-like structure containing two 280-molecule icosahedra and six 336-molecule tetrakaidecahedra (5¹²6²) networks per cubic unit cell.

 

These animations use Jmol: an open-source Java viewer for chemical structures in 3D. Use the mouse for control.
