Answer 1

Frenkel defect. A Frenkel defect or Dislocation defect is a type of defect in crystalline solids named after its discoverer Yakov Frenkel. ... This defect appears in an ionic solid which usually possess low coordination number and/or a considerable disparity in the sizes of the ions.

Answer 2

Due to this Frenkel defect, the density doesn't change.

• A Frenkel defect is a type of point defect in crystalline solids, named after its discoverer Yakov Frenkel.
• The defect forms when an atom or smaller ion (usual cation) leaves its place in the lattice, creating a vacancy and becomes an interstitial by lodging in a nearby location.
