NPN and PNP transistors function in essentially the same way. The power supply polarities are simply reversed for each type. The only major difference between the two types is that the NPN transistor has a higher frequency response than the PNP-because electron flow is faster than hole flow.
Therefore high frequency applications will utilize NPN transistors.

What is the difference between SL100 and CL100 transistor?
ITS AN NPN TRANSISTOR , GENERALLY USE AS A SWITCH GENREALLY IN COMMON EMITTER CONFIGURATON
What is the major difference an NPN transistor and a PNP transistor?
The NPN transistor has its conduction curve where the base is more positive than the emitter, while the collector is also more positive than the emitter. The PNP transistor is exactly opposite, with its conduction curve where the base is less positive than the emitter, while the collector is also less positive than the emitter.
What is the meaning for sl100?
General Purpose Medium Power NPN Transistor
When an NPN transistor is properly biased then most of the electrons from the emitter -?
Emitter
Is the pnp transistor in common collector can be replaced with npn transistor?
No. The PNP and NPN transistors are exactly opposite each other in polarity. You cannot just replace one for the other without redesigning the circuit.
