Solution
The correct option is D all are correct conclusion about elements A, B, C and D Energy gaps between the highest band and the lowest empty bands is lowest in metals, moderate in semi conductors and very high in insulators. This suggests us that : Element A must be a metal, element C must be an insulator and element B and D can be semiconductors.
