Which list of elements consists of metalloids?
elements that has both metallic and non-metallic characteristics. also known as semi-metalsthey are:Boron (B)Silicon (Si)Germanium (Ge)Arsenic (As)Antimony (Sb)Tellurium (Te)Polonium (Po)
Which elements show catenation?
Elements like Silicon and Carbon show catenation.
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 metal is a semi conductor?
No metal is semiconductor. By definition metal is conductor. There are metalloids elements. Like silicon and germanium. They are semiconductors. There is no hard and fast definition of such elements.
Why is silicon the best example of a metalloid?
Silicon (Si) is one of seven elements that are known as the metalloids. This is just a fancy term to describe certain elements that don't behave exactly like metals or exactly like non-metals. The generally accepted list of metalloids is silicon, germanium, boron, arsenic, antimony, tellurium and polonium. Silicon can have properties like a metal or a non-metal depending on what other elements it combines with. Glass is a very common silicon compound that has non-metal qualities, while the silicon used in electronics can be made to act very much like a metal.
What other elements does silicon like?

Which element on the periodic table has chemical properties that are most similar to those carbon?
Silicon, which is just below carbon, and Germanium are the two elements that are most like carbon.
Are all solid elements metals?
No, some like Sulfur and Silicon are Nonmetals and Metalloids respectively.
What elements are most like Carbon?
Nitrogen is very similar in chemical properties to Carbon.
How does silicon occur?
Silicon is a naturally occurring element. It, like all elements other than hydrogen, was formed inside of a star through the process of nuclear fusion.

Does lead like to combine with other elements?
Carbon, Geranium, Tin, and Silicon. The reason for this is because all of these elements including Lead, have four valence electrons.
