What element has the same electrons as silicon?
The element with chemical properties most like silicon is germanium. As an example, both are used in semiconductors.
What is germanium combined with to make compounds?
Germanium is most commonly combined with silicon, oxygen and hydrogen
Which element would you expect to have the most similar chemical behavior to Silicon?
Germanium
What are things made of germanium?
because of germanium oxide´s (GeO2) high refractive index, about 10% of worldwide germanium consumption is from optical uses such as lenses to cameras and centres of fibre cablesanother use of germanium is as a catalyst for polymerisation of polyethylene terephthalate, the plastic in most water bottles. germanium is also used in an alloy with silicon for semiconductors that can be faster then those with only silicon.
I am researching germanium and i would like to know what can you find it in?
You can find Germanium inside transistors. Note. Most transistors today are made from Silicon. In order to find a Germanium transistor you can read the type no. off the device, then look in a data book. Alternatively, if you have the equipment, measure Vcesat for the device. Silicon devices show about 1.2 V. When you find one at about 0.6 V you've got your Germanium.
What is the most familiar semiconductor?
silicon and germanium

Element used to make semi-conductor?
One element of carbon family as Silicon or Germanium and one element from Boron family as gallium or Indium or one element from Nitrogen family as Arsenic.
Which element would you expect to have the most similar chemical behavior to Silicon?
Germanium
Which element on the periodic table has chemical properties that are most similar to those carbon?
Silicon, which is just below carbon, and Germanium are the two elements that are most like carbon.
What is the most widely used semiconductive materials?
Silicon

What are some names of metalloids?
The six commonly recognized metalloids are boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, and tellurium.
What are example of semi conductor?
Germanium and Silicon are the two most commonly known semi-conductor materials
