Earth's crust, called the lithosphere, is made of 46.6 % oxygen, 27.7% silicon, 8.1% aluminum, 5.0% iron, 3.6% calcium, 2.8% sodium, 2.6% potassium, 2.0% magnesium, and other elements that are equal to 1.6%
Oxygen, silicon, aluminium, iron, calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium are the major components of the Earth's crust, in order from most abundant to least. Oxygen has 46.55% abundance and silicon has 27.77% abundance, while various other elements not mentioned make up 1.6%.
It makes up 99.99% of earths crust so it's not that abundant
Silicon
one of the types of crust that makes up the earths outer layer. continental crust is thicker than oceanic crust and is made up of less dense rocks such as granite. AKT ♥
silicon percent abundance in earths crust poops
earth's crust
rock
it is the lithosphere
It makes up 99.99% of earths crust so it's not that abundant
Oxygen and silicon
Silicon
im pretty sure it earths crust and core or if not the top part of the mantle and the crust above it this is the only infomation i could get sorry

In terms of weight, iron makes up approximately 5% of the earths crust, the fourth most abundant element in the crust. However, remember Earth's Core is nearly all Iron.
Silicates make up close to 95 percent of the rocks in the Earth's crust
Because it is less dense than the material that makes up the earth's crust, but more dense than the material that makes up the air.
Just to say: This question refers to rock groups. Not what type of rock.Igneous rocks make up most of the earth's crust.
