When you add a controlled amount of substance known as an impurity to a pure semiconductor, its conductivity increases. This pro

cess is known as doping. The addition of an impurity can increase or decrease the number of available electrons. If the number of electrons is increased, the extra electrons conduct electricity. If the number of electrons is decreased, a vacant hole is created. The adjacent electron enters the vacant hole and conducts electricity. Thus, it seems like the holes act as charge carriers. They are considered to be positive charge carriers. Depending upon the charge carriers that conduct electricity, there are two types of semiconductors: p-type semiconductors and n-type semiconductors.Which of the following statements are correct with respect to semiconductors?
a) The addition of group 3A elements to group 4A semiconductors decreases the conductivity of the group 4A semiconductors.
b) The conductivity of semiconductors can be increased by the doping process.
c) As the temperature increases, the conductivity of semiconductors decreases.
d) The addition of group 5A elements to group 4A semiconductors increases the conductivity of the group 4A semiconductors.
e) Holes are charge carriers in p-type semiconductors.
f) Electrons are charge carriers in n-type semiconductors.

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

1. The addition of group 3A elements to group 4A semiconductors decreases the conductivity of the group 4A semiconductors: Wrong

The addition of 3A group elements inreases the conductivity and make them extrinsic semiconductors( p-type)

2. The conductivity of semiconductors can be increased by the doping process.: Correct

3.As the temperature increases, the conductivity of semiconductors decreases.. wrong

As the temperature increases, the conductivity of semiconductors increases.

4. The addition of group 5A elements to group 4A semiconductors increases the conductivity of the group 4A semiconductors: Correct : They will create n-type semicoductor.

5.Holes are charge carriers in p-type semiconductors: Correct

6. Electrons are charge carriers in n-type semiconductors: Correct

Why is the finance charge important to consider when shopping for credit?
IRISSAK [1]
The correct option is C.
Finance charge on credit card refers to the interest you pay for borrowing money when you are using a credit card. It is the interest you are charged on the debts you owe and sometimes it might include other charges such as penalty fees for late payment. Individual finance charge is usually calculated using the the person APR [Annual Percentage Rate], amount of debt owe and the time period been considered. The higher your debts, the higher your finance charge.

What are some examples of some monotonic ions found in the body and how do they affect the body? Please help, anything will help
Luba_88 [7]
Atoms are electrically neutral because the number of protons, which carry a 1+ charge, in the nucleus of an atom is equal to the number of electrons, which carry a 1- charge, in the atom. The result is that the total positive charge of the protons cancels out the total negative charge of the electrons so that the net charge of the atom is zero. Most atoms, however, can either gain or lose electrons; when they do so, the number of electrons becomes different from the number of protons in the nucleus. The resulting charged species is called an ion.
