The pink colour of lithium chloride crystal is due to:
  • A
    Frenkel defect
  • Metal excess defect
  • C
    Metal deficiency defect
  • D
    Impurity defect
Answer
Correct option: B.
Metal excess defect
$\text{iCl}$ has non$-$stochiometric metal excess defect due to anion vacancies. The negative ions $(Cl^-)$ are missing from their lattice sites leaving the holes in which electrons are entrapped so that electrical neutrality is maintained.
When $\text{LiCl}$ is heated$, Li$ atoms gets deposited on the surface of the crystal. The $Cl^-$ ions diffuse into the surface and combine with $Li$ atoms to give $\text{LiCl}.$ This is so because of loss of electrons by $Li$ atoms to form $Li^+$. The released electrons diffuse excess into crystal and occupy anionic sites. As a result, there is an excess of $Li.$ The anionic sites occupied by unpaired electrons are $F-$centers which imparts a pink color to $\text{LiCl}$ crystals. The color is observed as a result of excitation of these electrons when they absorb energy from visible light falling on crystals.
