Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Which of the following properties are characteristic of amorphous solids?

Show answer

Irregular arrangement of particles, Isotropic properties, Gradual softening on heating

Amorphous solids have randomly arranged particles, show same properties in all directions (isotropic), and soften gradually over a temperature range rather than having sharp melting points.

2multiple choice

What is the coordination number in a hexagonal close-packed (hcp) structure?

Show answer

12

In hcp structure, each sphere is surrounded by 12 nearest neighbors: 6 in the same layer, 3 above, and 3 below, giving a coordination number of 12.

3multiple correct

Which of the following are characteristics of n-type semiconductors?

Show answer

Doped with Group 15 elements, Has excess electrons in conduction band, Electrons are major charge carriers

N-type semiconductors are formed by doping Si or Ge with Group 15 elements (P, As, Sb) which provide extra electrons, making electrons the major charge carriers.

4multiple choice

What is the packing efficiency of a face-centered cubic (fcc) structure?

Show answer

74%

FCC structure has the highest packing efficiency of 74%, meaning 74% of space is occupied by atoms and 26% is void space.
