11.

Assertion (A): The reverse saturation current in a semiconductor diode is 4nA at 20°C and 32 nA at 50°C.

Reason (R): The reverse saturation current in a semiconductor diode doubles for every 10°C rise in temperature.

A.

Both A and R are true and R is correct explanation of A

B.

Both A and R are true but R is not a correct explanation of A

C.

A is true but R is false

D.

A is false but R is true

Correct answer is A

At 20°C, 4 nA, at 30°C, 8 nA, at 40°C, 16 nA, at 50°C, 32 nA.
