Which outcome accelerates when sodium chloride crystal defects increase?

A)Ionic conductivity substantially increases
B)Crystal hardness abruptly plateaus
C)Dielectric breakdown voltage rises
D)Thermal expansion coefficient reduces

💡 Explanation

Increased defects create more mobile ion vacancies; therefore, more ions can migrate, increasing the ionic conductivity, because vacancy diffusion provides pathways. Conductivity increases, rather than other properties changing significantly, due to charge carrier availability.
