Assertion :Frenkel defect is also called dislocation defect. Reason: Frenkel defect is shown by ionic substances in which cation and anion are almost similar sizes.
It is a kind of defect in crystalline solids in which atoms are displaced from their lattice position to interstitial site creating vacancy at the lattice point. It usually occurs in ionic solid with large difference in size of ions. The density of crystal remains unchanged.
