What are the consequences of Schottky defect?

Answer»

Consequences of Schottky defect :

  • Since the number of ions (cations and anions) decreases but volume remains unchanged, the density of a substance decreases.
  • As the number of missing cations and anions is equal, the electrical neutrality of the compound remains same.
  • This defect arises in ionic crystals like NaCl, AgBr, KCl, etc.
