because we have hall cofficient =1/ne. where the n=no of electron ,e=charge of electron. we know that "n "in metal is very large. so that R=HALL COFFICIENT" is very small FOR it .so we can not find sufficient result for hall cofficient so we use semi conductor which gives non zero hall cofficient.
Germanium is a metal that does conduct heat, but does not conduct heat as well as other metals. This makes it a semiconductor.
Intrinsic conduction is conduction in a pure semiconductor due to electrons moving from negative to positive and an equal number of holes moving in the opposite direction. referenced from Dan O'Regan "Real world leaving cert physics"
Germanium is a semiconductor, it means that electrons are relatively strongly attached to nuclei. As result its thermal properties change. Generally semiconductors have worse thermoconductivity than metals but better than insulators.

An alloy is a mixture of two metals
The connection between a metalloid and a semiconductor is that metalloids are used in electronics as semiconductors. A semiconductor doesn't conduct electricity as well as a metal, but does conduct electricity better than a nonmetal.
reactivity
An element could be a metal.
some metals are semi conductors
One is hard one is soft
The hardness.
Alkali metals have one valence electron, group 2 metals have 2.
Semiconductor is not a single substance and so cannot be identified as either. Many semiconductors are made with metalloids, which have properties of both metals and nonmetals
semiconductor elements. You may want to confirm this on a science website. GOOD LUCK!
Scientifically speaking, there are a couple of fundamental differences between heavy metals and other metals in the table of the elements. Heavier metals tend to have more ions and typically, less toxic elements.
Metals generally are good conductors of electricity, and nonmetals are not.
