Q16 / 77 · NTA Abhyas (JEE Main) 2020 · Chemistry · Solid State

Strontium crystallizes in a fcc unit cell with edge length a. It contains 0.2% Frenkel defect and another crystal of Sr contains 0.1% Schottky defect. Density of solid with Frankel defect = d f and density with Schottky defect = d s , then

  • A
    df=ds
  • Correct answer
    B
    df>ds
  • C
    df<ds
  • D
    df=2ds

Solution

No effect on density due to Frenkel defect but due to Schottky defect density of solid decrease

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