Questions and Answers

What are free electrons?

  • Electrons that can move relatively freely through the material (correct)
  • Electrons that are found in insulators
  • Electrons that are bound to atoms
  • Electrons that have a positive charge

    • Which of the following is a good conductor of electricity?

  • Wood
  • Aluminum (correct)
  • Glass
  • Rubber

    • What happens when a good conductor is charged in a small region?

  • The charge remains concentrated in the small region
  • The charge readily distributes itself over the entire surface of the material (correct)
  • The charge is unable to move to other regions of the material
  • The charge causes the material to become an insulator

    • What are the electrical properties of semiconductors?
