Q159 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2024 (20 May Shift 2) · Physics

If the energy gap of a substance is 5.4 eV , then the substance is

Correct answer
A
Insulator
B
Conductor
C
$p$-type semiconductor
D
$n$-type semiconductor

Solution

If energy gap, $\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{g}}\gt5 \mathrm{eV}$, then the substance is insulator.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
