Some physical properties of silicon are that it is dark gray in color, its phase is a solid, and has a metallic shine. Its boiling point is 2600 degrees Celsius. The physical properties of an element or substance are those that we can examine with our senses. These properties include melting point, hardness, conductivity, and density.
Germanium is an element that exhibits similar behavior to silicon and lead. It shares some properties with silicon, such as being a semiconductor, and also shares some properties with lead, such as being a metalloid.
Silicon dioxide (SiO2) is a compound.
No silicon is an element in the same group as carbon, it has similar chemical properties but it is not carbon.
Silicon dioxide (SiO2) is a compound formed by the bonding of silicon and oxygen atoms. Silicon is a metalloid element, while oxygen is a non-metal element. Silicon dioxide has different properties from its constituent elements, exhibiting properties such as hardness, insolubility, and thermal stability that are not characteristic of either silicon or oxygen individually.
Silicon is an element. Its atomic number is 14 and its symbol is Si .Silicon is an element. (However, silicone... note the final e... is a category of silicon-containing compounds, which might be the source of the confusion.)
No, silicon is not a metallic element. It is a metalloid, which means it has properties of both metals and nonmetals. Silicon is commonly used in the production of semiconductors and computer chips.

Silicon.
No silicon is an element in the same group as carbon, it has similar chemical properties but it is not carbon.
Silicon, which is just below carbon, and Germanium are the two elements that are most like carbon.
Si is the symbol for the element silicon.
It is Homogeneous
silicon is the only element with an atomic number of 14. (Si is the symbol on a periodic table)
No, silicon is not nitrogen. Silicon is a chemical element with atomic number 14, while nitrogen is a separate element with atomic number 7. They have different properties and functions in chemistry and biology.
