Q. The energy band gap (distance between the conduction band and valence band) in conductor is
A) Zero
B) 4 $\mathring{\mathrm{A}}$
C) 10 $\mathring{\mathrm{A}}$
D) 100 $\mathring{\mathrm{A}}$
Explanation
(a) The valence band and conduction band overlap each other or have extremely small energy gap between them approximately equal to zero.
