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.
How many neutrons does a germanium atom have?
The most common isotope of Germanium has 40 neutrons.
How many protons are in one atom of silicon?
There are 14 protons in one atom of Silicon
How many electrons are there in a germanium atom?
32
Is silicon dioxide a atom?
No, silicon dioxide is a molecule.
Why you prefer silicon atom as comp conductor atom?
the silicon is the insulator
What is an atom for metalloid?
boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony and tellurium are all metalloids
How can you tell if an atom has the same valence as carbon?
Silicon and Germanium, Tin and Lead all have the same number of valence eelectrons as carbon.
This atom in its unbound state has four valence electrons?
That would be carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), Tin (Sn), etc.

What is the Electron shell arrangement of a Silicon Atom?
what is the arrangement of electrons in an atom of a silicon
How many neutrons does a germanium atom have?
The most common isotope of Germanium has 40 neutrons.
How many protons are in one atom of silicon?
There are 14 protons in one atom of Silicon
How many electrons are there in a germanium atom?
32
Will a lone silicon atom be diamagnetic or paramagnetic atom?
it will be paramagnetic because silicon has unpaired electrons
What does a molecule of silicon contain?
Silicon is an atom, not a molecule.
Is silicon dioxide a atom?
No, silicon dioxide is a molecule.
