What elements are trivalent?

A trivalent element is one that can form up to three bonds to other elements. Nitrogen is the most common trivalent non-metal and aluminum is the most common trivalent metal.


Would chlorine and iron form a divalent bond?

No, chlorine and iron would not form a divalent bond. Chlorine typically forms a single covalent bond with other elements, and iron can form both divalent and trivalent bonds with other elements, depending on the specific compound involved.


Name a metallic nitride of a trivalent metal which on reaction with warm water gives ammonia gas?

Aluminum nitride is a metallic nitride of a trivalent metal that, when reacted with warm water, produces ammonia gas.


What elements are used as impurities for doping germanium and silicon?

Any Pentavalent or Trivalent atom can be added to Silicon to create an "N" type or "P" type Material respectively. Which is used to create a PN Junction. Examples of Pentavalent atoms would be arsenic, antimony, and phosphorus, these Pentavalent atoms would be used to create an "N" Type material. Examples of Trivalent atoms are aluminum, boron, and gallium. Trivalent atom would be used to create "P" type material. I don't know why you would dope germanium, unless your talking about very old technology. Germanium use has slowed to a crawl since the discovery of intrinsic (pure) silicon.
