29.
If a sample of germanium and a sample of Si have the impurity density and are kept at room temperature then
both will have equal value of resistivity
both will have equal -ve resistivity
resistivity of germanium will be higher than that of silicon
resistivity of Si will be higher than of germanium
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Since the majority of charge carrier is better in Ge than in Si, for the same concentration of charge carriers, the conductivity of Ge is higher than that of Si.
