At 0 K, the conductor will be behaving. A semiconductor at 0 K behaves like that of an insulator, and an isolator only conducts poorly at very higher temperatures.
Explanation:
- It's going to be a conductor.Since the elements which have partially filled conductive band belong to the classification of elements whose outer edge subshell includes of an odd number of electron, they are better electricity conductors.
- Once an electric field is generated, electrons gain energy and begin wandering in the partially filled band.
- So, even at 0 K, the conductor will be behaving. A semiconductor at 0 K behaves like that of an insulator, and an isolator only conducts poorly at very higher temperatures.
- This is a conductor because the given component has free electrons to transmit even at 0 K.
