ZnO is white when cold and yellow when heated. It is due to the development of

  • Frenkel defect

  • metal excess defect

  • Schottky defect

  • metal deficiency defect.


B.

metal excess defect

ZnO turns yellow on heating as Zn2+ ions move in interstitial sites and electrons also get entrapped in  nearby interstitial sites to maintain electrical neutrality. As extra Zn2+ ions are present in interstitial sites thus, it is metal excess defect.
