Question
Chapter 7, Problem 28E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Band gap is an important factor for deciding conduction behaviour of solid. On the basis of band gap, we can easily classify solid into insulators, semiconductors and conductors
Concept introduction:
Energy difference between valence band and conduction band is called band gap.
To determine: band gaps in band theory of bonding for solids and the difference in band gap in metals, semiconductors and insulators.
