Question

The conduction band and valency band of a good conductor are
  1. well separated.
  2. just touch.
  3. very close.
  4. overlapped.

A
overlapped.
B
well separated.
C
just touch.
D
very close.
Solution
Verified by Toppr

In conductors, electrons are loosely bound to the nucleus hence, can detach easily at room temperature also. A large number of free electrons thus, available are conduction electrons. The energy level of these electrons corresponds to the conduction level, hence valance level and conduction level are overlapped.
