Syllogism

Question:

Given below are two statements:

Statement (I) : Adding of chemical impurity to a pure semiconductor is called doping.

Statement (II) : A semiconductor in an extremely pure form is known as extrinsic semiconductor. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Options:

Both Statement I and Statement II are true

Both Statement I and Statement II are false

Statement I is true but Statement II is false

Statement I is false but Statement II is true

Correct Answer:

Both Statement I and Statement II are false

Explanation:

Statement I is not entirely accurate, as doping involves adding a small amount of impurity to a semiconductor to alter its electrical properties, not just adding any chemical impurity.

Statement II is also incorrect, as a semiconductor can be doped with impurities to create extrinsic semiconductors. A semiconductor in its pure form is known as an intrinsic semiconductor.

Thus, Both Statement I and Statement II are false is correct.
