Question

What is Frenkel defect? How does it affect density of the solid?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

In this defect, an ion is displaced from its lattice place to an interstitial place. So there is no loss or gain of ions in its lattice structure. We all know that density is nothing but mass per volume. As there is no change in their mass and volume so there is no effect in the density of the solid due to this defect.
