Q17.
The following passage was taken from a chemistry textbook.
Germanium is a white, shiny, brittle element. It is used in the electronics industry because it is
able to conduct a small amount of electricity.
It is made from germanium oxide obtained from flue dusts of zinc and lead smelters.
The impure germanium oxide from the flue dusts is changed into germanium by the process
outlined below.
STEP 1
The germanium oxide is reacted with hydrochloric acid to make germanium
tetrachloride. This is a volatile liquid in which the germanium and chlorine
atoms are joined by covalent bonds.
STEP 2
The germanium tetrachloride is distilled off from the mixture.
STEP 3
The germanium tetrachloride is added to an excess of water to produce
germanium oxide and hydrochloric acid.
STEPS 1 to 3
are repeated several times.
