Q19 / 68 · NEST (NISER) 2022 (Session 1) · Chemistry
The correct statement about the Frenkel defect (FD) is
- AFD decreases the density of the substance.
- Correct answerBFD occurs due to the dislocation of some of the smaller ions from their original positions to the interstitial sites.
- CFD is a vacancy defect that results due to missing of an equal number of cations and anions, from a crystal lattice.
- DFD is found in all ionic solids.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
