    What type of crystal defect is indicated in the diagram below? \[N{{a}^{+}}\,C{{l}^{-}}\,N{{a}^{+}}\] \[C{{l}^{-}}\,\,N{{a}^{+}}\,\,C{{l}^{-}}\]       \[C{{l}^{-}}\] \[C{{l}^{-}}\,\,N{{a}^{+}}\,\,N{{a}^{+}}\] \[N{{a}^{+}}\,\,C{{l}^{-}}\] \[C{{l}^{-}}\,\,N{{a}^{+}}\,\,C{{l}^{-}}\]          \[C{{l}^{-}}\,\,N{{a}^{+}}\] \[C{{l}^{-}}\,\,N{{a}^{+}}\,\,N{{a}^{+}}\]

    A)  Frenkel defect

    B)  Schottky defect

    C)  Interstitial defect

    D)  Frenkel and Schottky defects

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Since, equal number of cations and anions are missing from their lattice sites. Therefore, the crystal diagram has Schottky defect.
