Silicon, which is just below carbon, and Germanium are the two elements that are most like carbon.
The element with chemical properties most like silicon is germanium. As an example, both are used in semiconductors.
Silicon, carbon's only neighbor within its periodic table column 14.
The chemical properties of calcium are most similar to (in between) the chemical properties of magnesium and strontium.
Silicon -- it also forms 4 bonds. Usually elements in the same group or vertical column in the periodic table all have similar chemical bonding properties.See the Related Questions to the left for more information.
Elements in Group 14 on the Periodic Table have similar properties to carbon. These elements are carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), lead (Pb), and flerovium (Fl). Each of these elements has two electrons in the outermost p orbital, the electron configuration ns2np2, and they tend to adopt oxidation sates of +4 (+2 for the heavier elements due to the inert pair effect). Silicon is most similar to carbon.
Lanthanides have properties similar to Cerium
Halogens have similar properties. All of them form anion.
