The intrinsic carrier density in germanium crystal at 300 K is 2.5 × 1013 per cm3 . If the electron density in an N-type germanium crystal at 300 K be 0.5 × 1017 per cm3 , the hole density (per cm3) in this N-type crystal at 300 K would be expected around-
(A) 2.5 × 1013
(B) 5 × 106
(C) 1.25 × 1010
(D) 0.2 × 104
