Most rocks at the surface of the earth contain:
oxygen
silicon
(silicon dioxide is the major component of rocks and sand)
and in approximate order the next 6 are:
iron
aluminum
potassium
sodium
calcium
magnesium
These are all of the elements that comprise 1% or more of earth's crust.
The next two elements to complete the top 10 are titanium and hydrogen.

What are the 8 most common elements?
The 8 most common elements in Earth's crust are oxygen, silicon, aluminum, iron, calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium. These elements make up the majority of the minerals and rocks found on the planet.
A substance made of two or more elements chemically combined is called?
compound
What does the 8 mean?
One of the elements that collectively form a system of numeration. It is also the number that follows 7.
Does a group 8 elements like neon needs to bond to other elements to stable?
No. These elements were long known as the "noble gasses" and in fact it was long believed they could not form compounds. Only relatively recently was it discovered that these elements can form compounds with highly reactive elements such as Fluorine and Chlorine. But Ne2? Xe2? No way.
What are the 8 elements that make up the earths crust?
The eight most abundant elements in Earth's crust are oxygen, silicon, aluminum, iron, calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium. These elements combine to form various minerals and rocks that make up the solid surface of the Earth.
Mendeleev's pattern repeated after how many elements?
The properties were repeated after 8 elements.
What are the mulitiples of 8 10 12?
They are elements of the infinite set of numbers of the form 120*k where k is an integer.
Do group 8 elements form ions?
Group-14 elements share electrons. they form covalent bonds.
What kinds of elements form anions after ionic bonding?
Most of the elements in the top right of the period table (but not "group 8" - the furthest column to the right) will readily form anions (negatively charged ions) that can then form ionic bonds. Examples are O, N, P and S
What elements makes up about 8 percent of crustal rocks by mass but only 5 percent by volume?
The element that makes up about 8 percent of crustal rocks by mass but only 5 percent by volume is aluminum. This discrepancy arises because aluminum has a relatively low density compared to other common elements in the Earth's crust. Consequently, while it is a significant contributor to the mass of rocks, its volume is less prominent due to its lighter weight. Aluminum is primarily found in minerals such as feldspar and bauxite.
What percent of rocks on earth are sedimentary?
Approximately 75% of the rocks on Earth are sedimentary. These rocks form through the accumulation and compression of sediments over time due to processes like weathering, erosion, and deposition. Sedimentary rocks often contain valuable information about Earth's history and past environments.
