The density of crystal suffering from Frenkel defect is
Increases
Decreases
Remain same
All of the above
In frankel defect cation or anion or both are missing from their correct lattice site ande occupy the interstitial space so mass of crystal is not affected hence the density of crystal remain same.
Frenkel defect -
Defect in which cation or anion are missing from their crystal lattice site and occupy the interstitial space is known as frenkel defect .
In this defect density of crystal remains same but conductivity increases and crystal behaves as p - type semiconductor.
- wherein
this defect is found in the compound having low coordination number and having significant size difference between cation and anion .
Ex : transition metal halides , CuCl , CuBr , AgBr , AgI , ZnS etc.
