For a $p-$type semiconductor,which of the following statements is true?

In an intrinsic semiconductor,the density of conduction electrons is $7.07 \times 10^{15} \, m^{-3}$. When it is doped with indium,the density of holes becomes $5 \times 10^{22} \, m^{-3}$. Find the density of conduction electrons in the doped semiconductor.

In an $n$-type semiconductor, the Fermi energy level lies

Pure $Si$ at $500\, K$ has equal number of electron $(n_e)$ and hole $(n_h)$ concentrations of $1.5 \times 10^{16} \, m^{-3}$. Doping by indium increases $n_h$ to $4.5 \times 10^{22} \, m^{-3}$. The doped semiconductor is of:

The hole and the free electron concentrations in a pure silicon at room temperature are given by $1.4 \times 10^{16} \ m^{-3}$ each under equilibrium. When it is doped with indium and the hole concentration is $n_{h} = 4 \times 10^{22} \ m^{-3}$,the electron concentration is
