Question

Conditions favouring schottky defect

Answer 1

Answer:

What are the conditions favouring schottky and Frenkel defect?

☛As the number of ions decreases as a result of this defect, the mass decreases whereas the volume remains the same.

☛ Hence density of the solid decreases.

☛The crystal begins to conduct electricity to a small extent by ionic mechanism.

☛The presence of too many voids lowers lattice energy and the stability of the crystal.
