Answer» CORRECT option is (c) in two ways, as SUBSTITUTION impurity defect or as INTERSTITIAL impurity defect To explain: An impurity defect occurs when a regular ion is replaced by some other type of ion, e.g. Na^+ is replaced by K^+. If the replacement occurs in the place of the regular cation, it is called a substitution impurity defect. If the replacement occurs in an interstitial position, it is called an interstitial impurity defect. |
