Classification of semi-conductors
Question

Let nP and ne be the number  of holes  and conduction electrons respectively in a semiconductor. Then

Easy
Solution

In intrinsic semiconductors, the creation or liberation of one free electron by the thermal energy creates one hole simultaneously.  Thus, in intrinsic semiconductors ne = nh.
