Which kind of defects are introduced by doping?

Silicon doped with electron-rich impurity forms ______.

Which of the following statements are true about semiconductors?

(i) Silicon doped with electron-rich impurity is a p-type semiconductor.

(ii) Silicon doped with an electron-rich impurity is an n-type semiconductor.

(iii) Delocalised electrons increase the conductivity of doped silicon.

Why are solids incompressible?

Why does the electrical conductivity of semiconductors increase with rise in temperature?

Assertion: Semiconductors are solids with conductivities in the intermediate range from 10^–6 – 10⁴ ohm^–1m^–1.
Reason: Intermediate conductivity in semiconductor is due to partially filled valence band.

(i) Mixing two oppositely charged sols neutralises their charges and stabilises the colloid.

(ii) Presence of equal and similar charges on colloidal particles provides stability to the colloids.

(iii) Any amount of dispersed liquid can be added to emulsion without destabilising it.

(iv) Brownian movement stabilises sols.

(i) Lyophobic sol is protected.

(ii) Lyophilic sol is protected.

(iii) Film of lyophilic sol is formed over lyophobic sol.

(iv) Film of lyophobic sol is formed over lyophilic sol.
