Which type of defect has the presence of cations in the interstitial sites ?

Assertion (A) : Non-stoichiometric compounds are called Bertholide compounds. NaCl and KCl crystal, when heated in an atmosphere of Na and K varpours, respectively, they impart violet and yellow colours to NaCl and KCl , respectively. Reason (R ) : Metal excess defect is due to the presence of extra cations atg the interstitial sites. The excess metal ions move to the interstitial sites and the electrons to the neighbouring sites. The colour results byt the excitation of these electrons by absorbing suitable energy from visible light. When the excited electroon comes back to the ground state, there is emission of radiation in the visible region and gives complimentary colour.
