In a solid lattice the cation has left a lattice sirte and is located at an interstital position , the lattice defect is

A

Interstitial defect

B

Valency defect

Frenkel defect

D

Schottky defect

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
When smaller ion (usually cation) is dislocated from its normal site in crystal and move to interstitial site is known as Frenkel defect as shown below.
