Silicon is an element, and was created in a star by fusion processes. Elements up to the mass of iron may be made in a star like our sun. For heavier elements, the energies found in a supernova are needed. Therefore, all of you comes from a star!!!
Earth formed by accretion from bits of rubble that began as the gas & dust clouds of ancient supernovas.
where does the element silicon come from? where does the element silicon come from?
No, silicon is not found in the Earth's core. The Earth's core is primarily composed of iron and nickel. Silicon is mainly found in the Earth's crust and mantle.
Silicon is not converted to magnesium in earth; some artificial isotopes of silicon decay to magnesium isotopes.
The most silicon on Earth is found in the Earth's crust, specifically in the form of silicon dioxide (SiO2) in minerals like quartz and sand.

The portion of Earth's crust which is composed of the element silicon is roughly 28%.
Silicon was discovered by a Swedish scientist. Silicon itself is not found in one nation, but can be found all over the world (usually mixed in other substances such as clay or mica).
Yes. Around 15% of the Earth's mass is the element silicon.
Silicon, with a percentage of 27,7 % in the earth crust.
The second most common element on Earth is silicon, after oxygen. Silicon is a non-metallic element that is abundant in Earth's crust, mostly found in the form of silicon dioxide (silica) in rocks and minerals.
Yes
silicon silicon's atomic mass is 28.06 and it has 14 protons so it would have 14.06 neutrons on average
