The impurity defect resulting in the crystal would be somewhat of this nature—-

  1. Na+ ions are occupied by Cs 2+ ions
  2. As charge on Cs is 2+,one Cs+2 would replace two Na+1 ions .
  3. This lattice now possess cationic vacancies ,and these vacancies are of the same no. of Cs +2 ions.
  4. Vacancies in the crystal lattice increases electrical conductance. These vacancies could be calculated if the no. of moles or mole % of CsCl2 occupancy is given .
