Question

The energy of vacancy formation in palladium (Pd) is 1.5 eV. At 888C there is one vacancy for every million (106) atom sites. What temperature would be necessary to achieve a vacancy fraction of one for every thousand (10 3) atom sites?

Express your answer in degrees C:

Answer 1

1882

Answer 2

Thank you!

Answer 3

it's wrong....

Answer 4

Correction, it's right. WHY it is right though, that is the question. After all, who would want to know how to do a similar question where internet access is disallowed? Anyone who hasn't just stumbled onto the question, or already knows how, that's who.
