Basic Electronics Objective Type Questions

1. The document appears to be a practice test on basic electronics concepts for students in the II ECE-A class at Nandha College of Technology, Erode. 2. It consists of 25 multiple choice questions testing knowledge of concepts like electric current, conductors, insulators, semiconductors, valence electrons, energy bands, and intrinsic vs. extrinsic semiconductors. 3. The questions cover topics such as how the properties of conductors, semiconductors and insulators vary with temperature; the definitions of terms like valence electrons, conduction band, and forbidden band; and the differences between intrinsic and extrinsic (doped) semiconductors.
