MCQ
This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2$. Of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements.

Statement $1$ : A pure semiconductor has negative temperature coefficient of resistance.

Statement $2$ : On raising the temperature, more charge carriers are released into the conduction band

  • A
    Statement $1$ is false, Statement $2$ is true
  • B
    Statement $1$ is true, Statement $2$ is false
  • C
    Statement $1$ is true, Statement $2$ is true,

Answer

Correct option: D.
Statement $1$ is true, Statement $2$ is true,
Statement $2$ is the correct explanation of Statement $1$ .
d
Temperature coefficient of resistance is negative for pure semiconductor. And no. of charge carriers in conduction band increases with increase in temperature
