CARBON FAMILY (കഥ )

Carbon  : Hai Silicon, how are you?

Silicon :Fine. Eventhough we are in same family, not much recognized. Right? Carbon :Yes. Say about your new programmes. Silicon :Oh! me and my friend Germanium together , Started a new branch in physics called semi conductor.

             Now its development    are fast. The evolution of computer technology, artificial  intelligence, robotics 
              etc are also rooted in  me.     

Carbon :So happy to hear this.I also, contributed to chemistry, a new branch called organic chemistry.

                Due to my different  properties like   catenation, I can   contribute to different sub  branches in 
               
                chemistry such as   polymer chemistry,   biochemistry etc...

Silicon  : Oh! You are lucky. The whole world is existing because of you.You are the building element of

                all living and non-  living things,     animals, plants, etc.

Carbon :You are also precious. Without you, our technological developments are not possible.

Carbon  : Oh!Silicon, they are someone is coming. our relatives, Germanium, Tin, and Lead.

Germanium : Hi, guys.

Carbon  : Hello,Hey say about your new programme.

Germanium  : What to say, Silicon and me are together work always. Nowadays we are used in transistors,

                    integrated    circuits,infrared spectroscopes,    infrared   ,detectors etc.        I am also used
                       
                      as a alloying agent as well    as a catalyst  nowadays .Almost all     development in  physics are   now based on  our contribution. 
                                                     
Carbon     :Is it? Hey Tin, what  bout you? 
               
Tin    :Oh!not so much as you.   Most of my properties    are useful in daily life.    People use me to make 
 
          polish, plate steel cans   etc and so on.                    
                                   

Silicon : And what about you Lead?


Lead: :Did you know about batteries.I am the major component in Lead batteries. People use me in radiation

         protection chamber,   X-ray machines, nuclear    reactors etc.                            
 
     
                      

Carbon :You both are metals. Right? Silicon and Germanium are Metalloids.

              Oh!It is  wonderful! I am a   non-metal."Non metal,
