The lattice site in a pure crystal cannot be occupied by :

A

Molecule

B

Ion

C

Electron

D

Atom

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Each point in a lattice is known as lattice point which is either atom or molecule or ion crystal constituents are arranged in fixed stoichiometric ratio. Hence, existence of free electrons are not possible, it is possible on in case of imperfection in solid.
