Is steel a conductor or an insulator?
Yes Every metal is a conductor because of the free electrons (Except Silicon and Germanium; They are semi-metals) Yes, steel is a conductor
How many free electrons in semi-conductor?
So many it can't be counted anymore.
Is silicon a good conductor at energy?
semi conductor. a good semi conductor. It can also be n or p doped to increase it's conductivity
Is a metal a semi conductor?
No metal is semiconductor. By definition metal is conductor. There are metalloids elements. Like silicon and germanium. They are semiconductors. There is no hard and fast definition of such elements.
Is non metal a semi conductor?
No. Nonmetals are generally non-conductors. Metalloids are usually semiconductors.
Is steel a conductor or an insulator?
Yes Every metal is a conductor because of the free electrons (Except Silicon and Germanium; They are semi-metals) Yes, steel is a conductor
Why does electronics deal with study of motion of electrons in semi conductor?
because it attracts the electric
How many free electrons in semi-conductor?
So many it can't be counted anymore.
Why electrons are majority carrier in n type semiconductor?
In n-type semiconductors, electrons are the majority carriers because dopant atoms, such as phosphorus or arsenic, introduce extra electrons into the crystal lattice. These extra electrons are free to move and contribute to the conductivity of the material, making electrons the dominant charge carriers in n-type semiconductors.
Is sodium a semi conductor?
No, sodium (Na) is a conductor not a semi conductor
How can you increase the conductivity of a semi conductor?
The conductivity of a semi-conductor can be increased by raising the temperature of the semi-conductor .
Explain free electron concept and electric current?
the flow of electrons in semi conductor is called electric current. the electrons revolved around the nucleas is called free electrons
What makes an element a semi-conductor?
an outer valence shell missing one or more electrons. slightly resistive
Is copper a conductor insulator or semi conductor?
Copper is a conductor.
Is cotton wool a conductor of electricity or an insulator?
Cotton wool is not a conductor or an insulator it is a semi conductor. It is sort of in the middle, electrons can travel through cotton wool but not as good as silver, bronze, metal and so on.
Why RAM is made up of Semi conductor material?
Ram has 0's and 1's. A zero is no electrons. A 1 has electrons. Thus, the RAM chip must be used with semiconducter material.
Is a cotton shirt a insulator or conductor?
semi conductor
