प्रश्न
Classify the following as being either a p-type or an n-type semiconductor:
B doped with Si.
उत्तर
B (a group 13 element) is doped with Si (a group 14 element). Thus, a hole will be created and the semiconductor generated will be a p-type semiconductor.

Why are solids incompressible?
Assertion: Semiconductors are solids with conductivities in the intermediate range from 10–6 – 104 ohm–1m–1.
Reason: Intermediate conductivity in semiconductor is due to partially filled valence band.
