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.
