A material that exists of only silicon and oxygen is called "Silica". Normally when found on it's own, silica is called Quartz. However, most volcanic minerals have some amount of silica in them.

Why are silicates so common in Earth's crust?
Silicates consist of Silicon and Oxygen, that may form with other compounds. Silicon bonds to Oxygen extremely easily. The chemical composition forms a perfect tetrahedron, SiO4. Silicon and Oxygen are also simply the most common elements found in the crust. Undergrad Geoscientist.
What are the common elements found in the earth's crust?
In just the crust, the estimated abundance is: 1. Oxygen 2. Silicon 3. Aluminum 4. Iron 5. Calcium *For the whole planet, the estimated abundance by mass would shift to iron, oxygen, silicon, magnesium, and nickel.
What are the two most common elements found in the Earth's continental crust?
silicon and oxygen
WHAT is the five chemical elements found in PIG IRON?
iron, nitrogen, sulfur, oxygen, silicon
What elements are found with aluminium or in aluminium?
Oxygen and silicon are two of the principle elements. See the related link.
What Materials are found in magma formed from oxygen and silicon?
Quartz.
What are the elements found in sand?
Silicon and oxygen, in this form. SiO2 Silicon dioxide.
How does silicon react with oxygen?
Silicon and oxygen combine to produce silicon dioxide, SiO2, which is found in nature as quartz or sand.

What substance is made of silicon and oxygen?
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.
Where are the elements oxygen and silicon found?
Oxygen and Silicon like many elements is not found in the elementary form, but these two are available in abundance in molecular forms. O2 is about 21% of the atmosphere and Silicon, is available in form of sand (quartz crystals).
What two elements are commonly found in minerals?
One is silicon, but I don't know the other:(oxygen
Where is silicon formed?
Silicon is an element (Si, 14), and so is not 'formed' (except at the centre of stars, as with all elements other than Hydrogen and Helium). It is the second most abundant element in the earths crust, and so occurs everywhere on earth. Pure silicon crystals are, however, rarely found in nature. Silica (silicon dioxide) is often found in various crystalline forms such as opal, jasper, amethyst and quartz. Silicate minerals (minerals containing silicon, oxygen and one other metal) are very common, found in clay, sand and rock such as granite and sandstone.
After oxygen which is the second most common element found on earth?
Silicon.
What is the base material for computer processing devices?
The answer is silicon. It is a naturally occurring material found in dusts and sands.
Is silicon dioxide a mineral?
No, silicon dioxide is a compound. There terms metal and nonmetal are used to describe elements.
What are some elements found on the moon?
Silicon, sodium, oxygen, titanium, and iron.
