Energy required to completely separate one mole of a solid ionic compound into gaseous. constituent ions is called

  • A

    Interstitial defect
  • B

    Valency defect
  • Correct answer
    C

    Frenkel defect
  • D

    Schottky defect

Solution

Frenkel defect is due to dislocation of ion from its usual lattice site to interstitial position.
