no, it is very brittle
Germanium has a brittle texture and is typically grayish-white in color.
Yes, germanium is a brittle element rather than ductile. It can break or shatter easily when subjected to force or pressure.
Germanium is a metal with many rough edges and smooth bumpy flat areas
no, it is less ductile and malleable than is glass.

Germanium IS the scientific name for an element that is brittle, crystalline, gray-white, and metalloid.

Germanium appears as a silvery-white metalloid with a shiny luster. In its pure form, it is brittle and crystalline. It is commonly found in nature in trace amounts in various minerals.
AnswerSemi-metal And a metalloid.
It looks like a silver-white metal (see Wikipedia for more info)
Silicon and germanium are described as semi-metals because they exhibit properties of both metals and nonmetals. They can conduct electricity like metals but are not as efficient as true metals. They also have some nonmetallic characteristics such as brittle structure and lower conductivity compared to true metals.
Metalloids have properties of both metals and nonmetals. They can conduct electricity like metals but are brittle like nonmetals. Some examples of metalloids are silicon and germanium.
