By increasing the temperature, the specific resistance of a conductor and a semiconductor
- A increases for both
- B decreases for both
- C increases and decreases, respectively
- D decreases and increases, respectively
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) increases and decreases, respectively
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In a conductor, increasing temperature causes more frequent collisions between electrons and vibrating lattice ions, which increases specific resistance. In a semiconductor, higher temperatures provide enough energy to break covalent bonds and release more charge carriers, which…

Adsorption is a surface phenomenon and it differs from absorption which occurs throughout the body of the substance that absorbs. In physiosorption the attractive forces are mainly van der Waal's forces while in chemisorption ionic/covalent bonds are formed between particles of adsorbent and adsorbate. The catalytic activity of finely divided iron in Haber's process of ammonia manufacture can be explained by adsorption theory. Adsorption being an exothermic process, the heat of adsorption is utilised in enhancing the rate of the reaction. Adsorption has many applications being used in gas masks, control of humidity, chromatograph separation, curing diseases etc.

(A) On increasing temperature, adsorption increases continuously.
(B) Enthalphy and entropy changes are negative.
(C) Chemical adsorption is more specific than physical adsorption.
