Question:
In a solid lattice, the cation has left a lattice site and is located at interstitial position, the lattice defect is
In a solid lattice, the cation has left a lattice site and is located at interstitial position, the lattice defect is
Updated On: Jun 8, 2024
- interstitial defect
- vacancy defect
- Frenkel defect
- Schottky defect
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
In Frenkel defect some cations are missing from normal lattice sites and occupy interstitial sites. This defect does not cause any change in density.

Concepts Used:
Imperfections in Solids
Any irregularity in the pattern of crystal arrangement in a solid lattice is called imperfection in solids. The occurrence of defects takes place when crystallization (the process of formation of crystals) occurs at a very fast or at an intermediate rate.
Basically, defects fall out in two forms:
- Point Defect
When the irregularities exist from the ideal arrangement around a point or an atom in solids, the defect is known as a point defect. Types of point defects are:
- Stoichiometric defects
- Non-stoichiometric defects
- Impurity defects
- Line Defect
When the deviation from the ideal arrangement exists in the entire row of lattice points, the defect is called line defect.
