Resistivity and electrical conductivity.(a) In metals, resistivity decreases.(b) In metals, resistivity decreases and conductivity in semiconductors also decreases with increasing temperature.(c) With increasing temperature, resistivity in metals and conductivity in semiconductors also increases.(d) None of the above.
State the difference between concrete and Portland cement.(a) There are no differences, in concrete the chemical composition is silicates and in cement aluminates.(b) The chemical composition of concrete is based on silicates and in cement aluminates.(c) Concrete is composed of aggregates bound by cement and cement "only" contains different minerals.(d) Cement is aggregates bound by concrete.
Amorphous polymers are usually transparent and semi-crystalline polymers are usually opaque. Correct?(a) No. They are all made up of polymer chains. True if they were monomers.(b) Yes. The arrangement of the chains determines the passage of light.(c) No. It is the other way around.(d) Crystallinity or amorphousness does not affect the transparency or opacity of the material.
