Silicon is a chemical element itself, and so comprises soley of silicon atoms. It has an atomic number of 14, which indentifies it uniquely as silicon. Further information could be gathered from wikipedia or elsewhere as necessary, or through further questions. Perhaps you meant to ask about silicone, in which case the answer is silicon. Silicone is a chain of silicon atoms with hydrogen added as necessary to fill out the valence.
