If NaCl is doped with 10^(-3) mol % of SrCl_2, what is the concentration of cation vacancies ?

Answer»

SOLUTION :Let moles of NaCl in the crystal = 100
Moles of `SrCl_2` doped = `10^(-3)`
`therefore` No. of `NA^(+)` ions replaced by each `SR^(2+)` ions = 1
No. of CATIONIC vacancies formed by `Sr^(2+)` ions = 1
`therefore` Number of cationic vacancies = `10^(-3)`
formed by `10^(-3)` mol `SrCl_2`
`therefore` Vacancy per mole of `NaCl =(10^(-3))/(100) = 10^(-5)`
`therefore` Number of vacancies per mole of NaCl
` = 6.022 xx 10^23 X 10^(-5)`
` = 6.022 xx 10^18`.
