Question

which cation are present in interstitial space in

Answer 1

1)Cations are present in interstitial sites in Frenkel defect.

2)When cations and anions from ionic solid leaves its regular site and moves to occupy a place between the lattice site is called interstitial site.

3)This defect is related to ionic compound is called Frenkel defect or dislocation defect.

4)The presence of this defect does not alter the density of the solid.
