Chapter 2: Defect Reactions Flashcards
1
Q
What are the three conditions needed for defect chemical reaction equations?
A
- Mass balance
- Charge balance
- Site ratio balance
2
Q
What is NOT considered into the mass balance?
A
Vacancies and electronic defects
3
Q
What happens during the formation of a Schottky disorder?
A
It involves the transfer of a defect pair from the bulk to the surface of the material (not real life)
4
Q
How would the simplified version of a Schottky reaction look like?
A
0 = v_O** + v_M’’
