← ScienceWhich consequence results when excessive mechanical stress narrows energy band?
A)Increased electrical resistance✓
B)Enhanced thermal conductivity
C)Improved optical transparency
D)Reduced piezoelectric effect
💡 Explanation
Increased mechanical stress narrows energy band disrupting electron delocalization and increasing electron scattering; therefore resistance increases because reduced mobility is induced, rather than enhanced conduction which requires wider bands.
