Before the discovery of the element germanium in 1886, its existence was predicted by Mendeleev as "eka-silicon". Mendeleev not only predicted the existence of this element but also its properties. Use the density of the neighboring elements to estimate the density of Ge. Before the discovery of the element germanium in 1886, its existence was predicted by Mendeleev as eka-silicon.
