Question

name a non metal which shows decrease in resistance and increase in temperature

Open in App
Solution

A negative temparature coefficient for a material means that its resistance decreases with an increase in temperature. Semiconductor materials (silicon, germanium) typically have negative temperature coefficients of resistance.
Carbon is an example for non metal which have negative temperature coefficient of resistance.

so example for nonmetal whose resistance decreases with increase in temparature is CARBON .
