Question

Germanium is the semiconductor of the current.

  1. True
  2. False

hintHint:

  • A semiconductor material has an electrical conductivity value falling between that of a conductor, such as metallic copper, and an insulator

The correct answer is 'True'.


    • A conductor allows current to flow easily through it. Insulators don't allow current to flow through it. Electric charges are absent in insulator. Conductors are used in making electrical equipment.
    • semiconductor material has an electrical conductivity value falling between that of a conductor, such as metallic copper, and an insulator
    • Germanium are used as Semiconductor effectively because they have 4 valence electrons in their outermost shell, which gives them the ability to gain or lose electrons equally at the same time.
