MCQ
The distinction between conductors, insulators and semiconductors is largely concerned with:
- ATheir ability to conduct current
- BThe type of crystal lattice
- CBinding energy of their electrons
- DRelative widths of their energy gaps

Answer
- Relative widths of their energy gaps
Explanation:
According to band theory, distinction between conductors, insulators and semiconductors is based on relative width of energy gaps between valence band and conduction band.
