The correct statement regarding defects in solid is

  1. A Frenkel defect is a vacancy defect
  2. B Schottky defect is a dislocation defect
  3. C Trapping of an electron in the lattice leads to the formation of F-centre
  4. D Schottky defect has no effect on density
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Trapping of an electron in the lattice leads to the formation of F-centre

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The correct statements regarding defects in solid is trapping of an electron in the lattice which leads to the formation of F-centre.
Other statements are incorrect, because Frenkel defect is dislocation defect and density decreases in case of Schottky defect as it is a vacancy defect.
