Which consequence results when excessive vacancies concentrate within a metal's lattice?

💡 Explanation

Enhanced ductile fracture initiates at vacancy clusters because the mechanism of vacancy coalescence reduces atomic cohesion, therefore weakening the local material rather than increasing its strength; vacancies locally increase strain.
