Question
Which of the following statement(s) is/are true regarding the electrical properties of solids?
Answer: B,C
π‘ Solution & Explanation
Metals have the highest electrical conductivity. TiO3 (Ti2$O_3$) undergoes a transition from insulator to metallic conductor with temperature. Solid iodine is a molecular solid with no free charge carriers, so it is non-conducting. Doping silicon with arsenic increases its conductivity, so n-type has higher conductivity than pure silicon.
