Characteristics of silicon: metalloid, important to animal/ plant life, 2nd most abundant element, (oxygen is 1st) and it is present in the sun and stars
Silicon (Si) is a metalloid.
Silicon is a metalloid. It has characteristics of both metals and nonmetals, making it an intermediate element on the periodic table.
They are both considered to be Metalloids meaning they have some metal characteristics and some non-metal characteristics.
Silicon itself is a non-metallic element with a shiny luster. However, when it is in its pure form or as a compound, it may appear dull depending on how it is cut or polished. So, silicon can exhibit both dull and shiny characteristics depending on its context.
Silicon is a metalloid, which exhibits both metallic and non-metallic characteristics. Boron is a metalloid as well, with properties in between those of metals and non-metals. Antimony is a metal.
Silicon is widely used in semiconductors

No. Silicon is a metalloid, meaning it has both metallic and nonmetallic characteristics.
some characteristics are that it is huge, smooth, and has a lot of protins
Silicon (Si) is a metalloid.
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.
Potential barrier of silicon is 0.7, whereas potential barrier of germanium is 0.3
Silicon is a metalloid. It has characteristics of both metals and nonmetals, making it an intermediate element on the periodic table.
They are both considered to be Metalloids meaning they have some metal characteristics and some non-metal characteristics.
No, silicon is not a metal. It is a metalloid and is typically classified as a semiconductor. Silicon is commonly used in the electronics industry for making computer chips and other devices due to its semiconducting properties.
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
SILICON same as any other diode but with different characteristics
