Question

Which one is an example for frenkel defects
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Frenkel defects are mostly exhibited in ionic solids where the smaller ion (usually the cation) is dislocated. Some examples include AgBr, ZnS, AgCl, and AgI. Here the defect occurs mainly due to the smaller size of Zn2+ and Ag+ ions.

Answer 2

The Frenkel defect (also known as the Frenkel pair/disorder) is a defect in the lattice crystal where an atom or ion occupies a normally vacant site other than its own. As a result the atom or ion leaves its own lattice site vacant.
