Basically they are not, however when placed in their position in the Periodic Table it is possible to discern that certain elements form columns where the properties of all the elements in the column are similar both physically and chemically. This is because they have they have the same outer shell electron configurations.
They both have same number of electrons, i.e. 4 in their valence shell.
Yes, they are both classified as non-metals and are located in Group 14.
Both Carbon (C) and Silicon (S) are contained inside the same group. They are both known semiconductors.
Titanium is a metal; carbon is a non-metal and silicon is a metalloid.
They are all similar in the sense that they all have protons and electrons, and except for hydrogen, they also all have neutrons.
these are the elements of group 14
Zirconuim (Zr) and Hafnium (Hf)
yes.
No silicon is an element in the same group as carbon, it has similar chemical properties but it is not carbon.
Silicon dioxide contains only silicon and oxygen - no carbon., The only carbon in a sample labelled " silicon dioxide", would be an impurity or contaminant probably on the surface
Silicon carbide consists of silicon and carbon, quartz consists of silicon and oxygen.
carbon, silicon, germanium, tin, and lead.
Si+CO2 ---------> SiC+SiO2
No, silicon is an element separate to carbon
No silicon is an element in the same group as carbon, it has similar chemical properties but it is not carbon.
silicon and carbon
Silicon dioxide contains only silicon and oxygen - no carbon., The only carbon in a sample labelled " silicon dioxide", would be an impurity or contaminant probably on the surface
Carbon is a nonmetal, while silicon is a metalloid, so no.
they are all i the same family on the periodic table. sorry for the cheap answer but something is better then nothing right?
silicon belongs to the carbon family
Silicon, which is just below carbon, and Germanium are the two elements that are most like carbon.
Yes, there can be non carbon based life forms; although none yet have been discovered; there is much speculation about the possibility of silicon based life forms due to certain similarities to carbon at the atomic level.
Silicon carbide consists of silicon and carbon, quartz consists of silicon and oxygen.
Which one is mixture carbon dioxide = compound silicon = element silicon dioxide = compound or sand = mixture so sand is the answer.
carbon 3.0-4.0 and silicon 1.8-2.8
