Silicon is an element. It is not "made" except by nature. Perhaps you are thinking of silicone which is the generic name for several compounds, some of which have metallic characteristics
They are made from silicon
Silicon is obtained by heating silica, or silicon dioxide with carbon or magnesium (or some reducing agent) in an electric furnace. And after that this mixture is coated on the object to make it water proof.
Silicon is a metalloid, which is an element that has properties of both metals and non-metals. It shares some characteristics with non-metals, such as being brittle and not conducting electricity very well.
espicially silicon, becos it is a very good semiconductor
Silicon is actually a metalloid, not a metal. It has properties of both metals and non-metals, such as being a semiconductor and having a crystalline structure.
Silicon (Si) is a metalloid.
No, silicon is not an alkali metal. Silicon is a metalloid located in Group 14 of the periodic table, while alkali metals are located in Group 1. Silicon shares some properties with metals and non-metals.
Elements like silicon are not typically used to make wires or pans because they have poor conductivity compared to metals like copper or aluminum. Silicon is a semiconductor and its electrical conductivity is much lower than that of metals, making it unsuitable for conducting electricity efficiently. Additionally, silicon is brittle and not as malleable as metals, making it less practical for forming into the shapes needed for wires or pans.
Silicon is a solid at room temperature. It is a metalloid with a crystalline structure that exhibits properties of both metals and non-metals.
Silicon is not a metal. It is usually called a metalloid bcause its properties are between those of metals and no-metals.
Silicon is a metalloid that can form compounds with both metals and nonmetals. It commonly forms covalent bonds with elements like oxygen to create silicates, which are found in minerals like quartz and sand. Silicon can also react with metals to form alloys, such as with aluminum to create strong and lightweight materials.
Steel is an alloy of iron with carbon and metals as: chromium, vanadium, silicon, etc.
