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.

  • A
    Zero
  • B
    $1 \times 10^9 \, m^{-3}$
  • C
    $7 \times 10^{15} \, m^{-3}$
  • D
    $5 \times 10^{22} \, m^{-3}$
