Crystals with line defects are thermally unstable as its ethalpy change increases more than its entropy change. This leads to an increased in Gibbs free energy.

Where defects can occur in crystal structures?

Within a crystal there are point defects and line defects; point defects are missing or extra lattice points within the crystal lattice (vacancies or interstitials), line defects may be due to an 'extra' half lattice plane within the crystal. The end of a line defect plane is known as an edge dislocation, screw dislocations occur where part of a crystal is displaced over one lattice direction and is therefore twisted. Dislocation loops can occur where an edge and a screw dislocation intersect.


Which point defect lowers the density of crystals?

Any change in the configuration of the lattice of the crystal which causes the crystal structure to deviate from the ideal structure is called a crystal structure. It is of the following types - Point defects Line defects Surface defects volume defects

How does water mix in under floor heating systems?

A thermally controlled mixing valve is connected between the hot supply line and the return line, tempering the hot supply with the cooler return water.


Do you need to have a seed crystal to make other crystals?

No you can make some crystals with table salt by making a saturated solution look how to do it on line


What are the defects of plastics?

Common defects of plastics include warping, cracking, shrinking, and surface blemishes. These defects can occur due to factors such as improper cooling during molding, poor material selection, or inadequate design. Proper processing techniques and quality control measures are essential to minimize these defects.


What are general defects in broiler chickens?

Broiler chickens are highly line bred. Heat defects are the most common. Some have the incorrect number of toes. They are also prone to intestinal deformities.


What is a restoring mechanism?

The restoration mechanisms in metals are either dynamic recovery or dynamic recrystallization. These help to modify the microstructure by arranging line defects (dislocations) into surface defects (boundaries) thus ineffect reducing their spacing, and refining the microstructure.


Why won't rock candy grow on a nylon line?

It may be that the nylon is to smooth to provide a platform for the crystals to form.


Can you start 20kw motor on direct on line circuit?

No, the motor has to be connected to the line voltage through a set of fuses and then an electrical contactor. Also the motor must be thermally protected against overloads by using an overload block or heaters. This is to allow the motor contactor to drop out is a overload fault should occur.
