Solution

The correct option is A $0 e V$
The range of energy of the valence electrons of an atom is known as valence band. The range of energy in which an electron must exist in order to participate in the conduction of electricity is known as conduction band. The difference between the valence band and conduction band is known as band gap or energy gap. In conductors, the valence band overlaps with the conduction band. Which means, electrons are already ready for conduction and energy gap in a conductor is zero.
