Question

what do you understand by frenkel defect

Answer 1

generally occurs when small sized cations are present and they leave their site and occupy the interstitial site. this causes electrical conductivity .density remains same

hope it helps

Answer 2

HEY!!

✔Lonic solids containing large differences in the sizes of ions show frenkal defect.

✔When the smaller ion (usually cation) is dislocated from its normal site to an interstitial site, Frenkel defect is created.

✔ It creates a vacancy defect as well as an interstitial defect.

✔Frenkel defect is also known as dislocation defect. Ionic solids such as AgCl, AgBr, AgI, and ZnS show this type of defect.
