Explanation:
For silicon diodes, the built-in potential is approximately 0.7 V. Thus, if an external current is passed through the diode, about 0.7 V will be developed across the diode such that the P-doped region is positive with respect to the N-doped region and the diode is said to be "turned on" as it has a forward bias.
Therefore, 2.3 V - 1.6 V = 0.7 V. Hence the answer is correct.
