    The addition of \[CaC{{l}_{2}}\]crystal to a \[KCl\]crystal

    A) Lowers the density of the \[KCl\] crystal.

    B) Raises the density of the \[KCl\] crystal.

    C) Does not affect the density of the \[KCl\] crystal

    D) Increases the Frenkel defects of the \[KCl\]crystal.

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] One \[C{{a}^{2+}}\] lets two \[{{K}^{\oplus }}\]leave the crystal to maintain the electrical neutrality of the compound. The mass of two \[{{K}^{\oplus }}\] is greater than the mass of \[C{{a}^{2+}}\] Hence, density decreases.
