CBSEENCH12011383

If NaCl is doped with 10-4 mol% of SrCl2 the concentration of cation vacancies will be 
(NA = 6.02 x 1023 mol-1):

  • 6.02 x 1015 mol-1

  • 6.02 x 1016 mol-1

  • 6.02 x 1017

  • 6.02 x 1014

Solution

A.

6.02 x 1015 mol-1

If NaCl is doped with 10-4 mol% of SrCl2
2 Na+ ions doped by Sr2+ NA = 6.02 x 1023
The concentration of cation vacancies
 =  6.02 x 1023 x10-8
= 6.02 x 1015 mol-1
