Chapter 11, Problem 65E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

An explanation regarding the large size of germanium than silicon is to be stated

Concept Introduction:

On moving from left to right in a periodic table, the effective nuclear charge increases. The effective nuclear charge pulls the valence electrons closer to the nucleus. Thus, the atom becomes smaller.

On moving from top to bottom in the group, the higher principal energy levels become farther from the nucleus. Therefore, the effective nuclear charge cannot pull the valence electrons closer to the nucleus. Thus, the atom size becomes larger.
