Is germanium chloride a solid or gas?
If you are referring to germanium tetrachloride, it is a colorless liquid. If you are referring to germanium dichloride, it is a yellow solid. Germanium does not have any chloride compounds that are gaseous at STP.
Is germanium formed naturally?
Germanium is a naturally occurring element, but does not occur in pure form on the Earth (only in compounds).
What 2 molecules contain germanium?
Many simple organic compounds can have germanium substituted for some or all of the carbon. This gives many thousands of different molecules.
Most common oxidation numbers of germanium?
+4 in its compounds 0 in the elemental form
Is the organic germanium Sesquioxide Ge-132 the same that's used in diodes?
No, ultrapure elemental germanium (with very tiny amounts of dopant impurities added) is used in electronics devices. Never germanium compounds, organic or inorganic. However the germanium in the compound is the same element, but could not be used in electronic devices unless separated and purified (which destroys the compound).
What does germanium do?
Germanium does no "do" anything.
Who is Germanium manufactured?
Germanium is not manufactured; its ore is mined then refined into germanium.
