Best Answer

Silicon dioxide is not a white solid- large pure crystals are colorless and transarent- powdered silcon dioxide is white- this is due to the presence of the small particles. titanium dioxide has a high refractive index so appears white.

Is silicon a solid at room temperature?

At room temperature the element silicon is a crystalline solid.If it was not a crystalline solid, the computer you have in front of you would not be possible (or would be much bigger and consume much more power).Do not confuse the element silicon with various compounds called silicone, which are oils and polymers that have silicon atoms in their molecules instead of carbon atoms, and can be either liquids or solids. There are also silicon compounds that are gases (e.g. silane, chlorosilane, fluorosilane, chlorofluorosilane).
