Question
Two statements are given-one labelled Assertion (A) and the other labelled Reason (R). Select the correct answer to these questions from thecodes(a), (b), (c) and (d) as given below.
  1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
  2. Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
  3. A is true but R is false.
  4. A is false and R is also false.
Assertion: At absolute zero the conductivity of semiconductor is zero.
Reason: In a semiconductor there are no free electrons at any temperature.

Answer

  1. A is true but R is false.
Explanation:

In a semiconductor, there are no free electrons at 0K. The number of free electrons increases with increase in temperature because with increase in temperature the electron get sufficient energy to cross forbidden band and reach conduction band. But total number of free electrons in a semiconductor is less than that in a conductor.
