The crystal structure of normalAgO has been determined by means of neutron diffraction. The nuclear scattering of Ag and O atoms has made it possible to determine the positions of the oxygen atoms and to modify the space group which was reported for this compound from x‐ray data. No magnetic diffractions were observed even at liquid helium temperature; the absence of magnetic scattering confirms the diamagnetism of the compound. The lattice was found to be monoclinic, space group P21/normalc , with four formula weights of normalAgO in the unit cell. The silver atoms are not equivalent, and in the structure there are two Ag‐O distances of 2.18Aå and 2.03Aå; the first one corresponds to colinear Ag(I)‐O bonds, the second distance corresponds to square planar Ag(III)‐O bonds.
