Question

write about the Frenkel defect ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Frenkel defect arises when an ion of an ionic compound is missing from its regular lattice site and occupies interstitial position between lattice points The cations are usually smaller than anions. It is, therfore, more common to find the cations occupying interstitial sites. It is easier for the smaller cations to accomodate the interstitial spaces.

Answer 2

Answer:

A Frenkel defect or dislocation defect is a type of point defect in crystalline solids named after its discoverer Yakov Frenkel. The defect forms when an atom or smaller ion (usually cation) leaves its place in the lattice, creating a vacancy, and becomes an interstitial by lodging in a nearby location.
