Yes, silicon is made of sand. At least it's in it.
Please refer to "How computer chips are made" to see that sand contains silicon in the form of silicon dioxide.
Sand is mainly made up of Silicon dioxide. The elements making this compound are Silicon and Oxygen. SiO2 is a very hard compound.
Diamond is a tetrahedral network made of carbon atoms; sand is made of silicon dioxide.
The primary constituent of sand grains is silicon dioxide, with formula SiO2.
quartzRock, sand.
The element silicon is to be found in 'sand' which is made from quartz which is silicon dioxide.

Silicon is found in stone, sand, and soil as well!
Silicon. the mixture sand is made of silicon and oxygen. the chemical formula for sand is SiO_2
Sand (silicon dioxide)
Both sand and quartz have the elements silicon and oxygen. It is a crystalline structure. The crystalline structures of sand and quartz are slightly different.
Our everyday glass is made of silica, a sand composed of silicon dioxide, silicon and oxygen.

Glass is manely made of SAND!
Most sand is composed of quartz - silicon dioxide. The element silicon is used to make microchips.
