← ScienceWhich outcome can result when applying extreme force during ionic crystal cleavage?
A)Increased localized electronic charge buildup✓
B)An increase in conductivity
C)Preferential metallic bond formation
D)Phonon scattering remains unchanged
💡 Explanation
Extreme force during cleavage can lead to charge buildup because of the **piezoelectric effect** causing ion displacement without full electron transfer at the new surfaces; therefore localized electronic charge buildup occurs rather than increased metallic bonding or unchanged phonon scattering.
