Energy Band gap value for calcium carbonate and barium carbonate?
forbidden energy gap or energy gap or band gap or band or Eg is the gap between the top of the valance band and bottom of the conduction band. If we apply the energy equivalent to Eg then the electrons in valance band will jump to the conduction band.

In a direct band gap the electron only needs energy to jump to the conduction band. In an indirect band an electron needs energy and momentum to jump to the conduction band
there will be only certain energy levels in which electrons get filled up. In valence orbitals there will be many such energy levels and the energy gap between conduction band and valence band is called energy band gap.

it is the energy required to transfer an electron from valence band to conduction band, the external energy which is required is equal to the forbidden energy gap
The band gap represents the minimum energy difference between the top of the valence band and the bottom of the conduction band, However, the top of the valence band and the bottom of the conduction band are not generally at the same value of the electron momentum. In a direct band gap semiconductor, the top of the valence band and the bottom of the conduction band occur at the same value of momentum.In an indirect band gap semiconductor, the maximum energy of the valence band occurs at a different value of momentum to the minimum in the conduction band energy
According to band theory , the energy gap between valence band and conduction band was high. But during heating the energy gap get decreased. this is the reason why the mg behaves as an conductor.
Yes it is. Most Sn (tin) materials as semiconductors are direct band gap materials. Silicon on the other hand is an indirect band gap material.
