Q: Find the number of vacancy When NaCl is doped by 10⁻⁵ mole % of SrCl₂ ? Ans: In 100 moles of NaCl ion 10⁻⁵ moles of SrCl₂ is added => In 1 mole NaCl 10⁻⁷ Moles of SrCl₂ are added. Now, by adding one molecule of SrCl₂ one Na⁺ ion is replaced by one Sr⁺² ion. To maintain the electrical neutrality one Na⁺ ion is removed leaving behind a vacancy. 1 molecule creates one vaccancy. So, 10⁻⁷ moles of molecules will create 10⁻⁷ moles of vacancy. Therefore , total number of vacancies are 10⁻⁷ x Nₐ or 6.022 x 10 ¹⁶ . Trick to find number of vacancies No. vacancies = difference between the magnitude of charge of the added ion and the removed ion.
