With neat sketches,explain vacancy and Schottky imperfection. Calculate the equilibrium number of vacancies per cubic meter for copper at 1000° the energy for vacancy formation is 0.9 eV/atom. The atomic weight and density (at 100°C) for copper are 63.5g/mol and 8.4g/cm3 respectively.(Boltzman's constant = 8.62×10-5eV/K)
