Explanation:

Process

Follow the clues to find the answer

1.- Behavior similar to that of Si and Pb.

Elements of the same group have similar properties so this element could be:

    Carbon, Germanium or Tin

2.- Mass greater than sulfur

     Sulfur has a mass of 32

     So, the element we are looking for could not be Carbon

3.- Mass less than Cadmium

     Cadmium has a mass of 48, so this element could no be Tin

4.- The element we are looking for is Germanium.
