Detailed explanation-1: -Germanium is a chemical element that is placed in the 14th group and 4th period in the periodic table. The symbol of the Germanium element is Ge. It is a metalloid with the atomic number 32. As Germanium is a metalloid, it shows some properties of metals and nonmetals as well.
Detailed explanation-2: -The valency of germanium atom is four, hence it can accept, donate or share four electrons from neighboring atoms to complete its octate.
Detailed explanation-3: -Germanium, Ge The electronic configuration of germanium is (Ar)(3d)10(4s)2(4p)2 and the atomic radius is 0.137 nm. Germanium has the diamond cubic crystal structure shown, an fcc lattice with a basis of two germanium atoms, one at (0, 0, 0) and the other at (1/4, 1/4, 1/4) in units of the cube edge.
