What will be the probability of electrons to be found in the conduction band of an intrinsic conductor at a finite temperature with increasing band gap?

Assertion: The probability of electrons to be found in the conduction band of an intrinsic semiconductor at a finite temperature decrease exponentially with increasing band gap. Reason: It will be more difficult for the electron to cross over the large band gap while going from valence band to conduction band.
