Q1 / 100 · BITSAT 2023 (Memory Based Paper 1) · Chemistry

Frenkel and Schottky defects are :

A
nucleus defects
B
non-crystal defects
Correct answer
C
crystal defects
D
nuclear defects

Solution

Frenkel and Schottky defects are crystal defects. It arises due to dislodgement of cation or anion from their places in the crystal lattice.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
