please explain schotty defects
Answers
Answer:
A Schottky defect is a type of vacancy defect which is found in ionic solids. It is a stoichiometry defect (thermodynamic defect), which means that such defects do not change or distort the stoichiometry of the solid. In this type of vacancy defect there are cations and anions missing from the solid, but since the number of missing cations and anions are the same the electrical neutrality of the solid is maintained.

Hope answer is helpful
Answer:
Explanation:
Schottky defects are those defects which are found in the ionic compounds it is due to the the removal of cation and anion collectively that's why we can found the the free spaces for the vacancies in the ionic compound and finally we can observe density is decreases due to the schottky defect as well as schottky defect is found in those ionic crystals where is the cation and anion have the nearly same size as well as radius ratio should be high.
