In an $n$-type semiconductor, the fermi energy level lies

In an $n$-type semiconductor, the fermi energy level lies
  1. in the forbidden energy gap nearer to the conduction band
  2. in the forbidden energy gap nearer to the valence band
  3. in the middle of forbidden energy gap
  4. outside the forbidden energy gap

Solution

In an $n$-type semiconductor, the fermi energy level lies near the conduction band in the forbidden energy gap.
