Silicon will react easily with oxygen (to form the network solid SiO2), hydrogen (to form silane gas), and the halogens to form silicon halides.
Examples: oxigen, fluorine, chlorine, carbon etc.
It forms strong bonds with the most electronegative elements, i.e. oxygen, fluorine and chlorine. Oxygen being the most abundant of the oxidants is the strongest silicon bond that's common on Earth. For example sand is mainly silicon dioxide.
Covalent bond
Yes, Germanium with the atomic number of 32 can combine with chlorine to make silicon phone cases
dative bond
Silicon (and oxygen).
silicon, germanium
The two elements that commonly occur within the earth crust are Oxygen and Silicon.

Covalent bond
silicin. silicon is a very useful thing. it has many uses and all. like the silicon thingy that other women wear or something. ok. so silicon. it is a...uhm....a...bond. its actually a type of james bond. yehp thats it. bond. james bond.

fluorine and silicon form a perdominately ionic bond. fluorine is a nonmetal and silicon is a metal.
Silicon is an element, not a compound, elements can't be broken down into any other elements because it is already as simple as it can get.
Silicon and oxygen are two of the most abundant elements in the universe. Oxygen will readily bond with silicon and metals to form minerals. Other similarly abundant elements either sank into Earth's interior or tended to form volatile compounds that were driven away from Earth by the solar wind when the planets were still forming.
