Assertion :-(A) semiconductors are solids with conductivites in the intermediate range from`10^(-6)-10^(4) ohm ^(-1)m^(-1)`
Reason :-(R ) internmediate conductivity in semiconductor Is due to partially filled valence band .

A

Assertion and reason both are correct statements and Reason is correct explantion for Assertion .

B

Asserton and Reason both are correct statement but Reason is not correct explanation for assertion .

C

Assertion is correct statement but reason is worng statement .

D

Assertion is Wrong statement but Reason is correct statement .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Assertion is correct statement but reason is incorrect statement .
semiconductors are solids with conductivites in the intermediate range varie from `10^(-6)-10^(4) Omega ^(-1) m^(-1)` intermediate conuctivity is due to small energy gap between valence band and conduction bond ,
