To solve the problem, we need to calculate the number of holes in a pure semiconductor sample given the number of conduction electrons. In a pure semiconductor, the number of conduction electrons is equal to the number of holes. Therefore, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given data**: - Number of conduction electrons in the semiconductor: \( n = 5 \times 10^{18} \) electrons/m³ - Dimensions of the sample: \( 2 \, \text{cm} \times 1 \, \text{cm} \times 2 \, \text{mm} \) ...
