(c, d)
Explanation:
Statements (c) and (d) can be correctly written as (c) Impurity defect changes the density of substance as impurity has different than the ion present on perfect crystal e.g., When SrCl2 is added to the NaCl crystal, it causes impurity defect, (d) Frenkel defect results neither decrease nor increase in density of substance.
