1.	A sample of ferrous oxide has actual formula Fe_0.93 O_1.00. In this sample what fraction of metal ions are Fe^(2+) ions ? What type of non-stoichoimetric defect is present in this sample ?
Answer» SOLUTION :METAL deficiency defect is PRESENT in the sample because IRON is present in lesser amount then required according to stoichiometric composition
