Assertion (A) When a wire of aluminium and another wire of silicon are heated from room temperature to \(80^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), the conductivity of aluminium increases and that of silicon decreases.
Reason (R) Aluminium has positive temperature coefficient of resistivity and silicon has negative temperature coefficient of resistivity.
- A Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
- B Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
- C (A) is correct but (R) is not correct.
- D (A) is not correct but (R) is correct.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) (A) is not correct but (R) is correct.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Key Idea In nature, metals have positive temperature coefficient and semiconductors have negative temperature coefficient. Aluminium is a metal, so its conductivity decreases with increase in temperature, due to the excessive collision of electron. Whereas, \(\mathrm{Si}\) is a…
