Chemistry

The main defect in stoichiometric CsIis the Schottky defect. The fraction of lattice sites that exhibitSchottky defects as a function of temperature, is as follows: 1.08x 10exp-16 at 300 K, 1.06 x 10exp-12 at 400 K, 2.63 x 10exp-10 at500K, 1.04 x 10exp-8 at 600 K, 4.76 x 10exp-6 at 900 K. Showwhether the formation of Schottky defects is given by an Arrhenius(or Boltzmann) expression and, if so, evaluate the enthalpy offormation of one Schottky defect and 1 mol of Schottky defects.
