silicon is the name of the element. A silicone is a type of polymeric compound of silicon that contains a silicon-oxygen backbone and alkyl groups (e.g. CH3) attached to the silicon e.g.
[Si(CH3)2O]n
See wikipedia silicone for examples of the different uses of silicones- and the silicon article for a picture of silicon.

What are five examples of silicon products?
Examples of silicon products are: 1.silicone egg ring 2.silicone rubber keypads 3.silicone cookware 4.silicone masks 5.silicone nibbles 6.silicone roller * * * * * Note that these are products of silicone. Silicone contains silicon but is not the same. More common examples of silicon use are microprocessor chips, glass, sand paper.
What is the difference between silicon and silicones?
silicon is a compound used to make silicone
How many chlorine atoms would a silicone atom need to form with it so that the silicone is stable?
A silicon atom does not typically form covalent bonds with chlorine atoms. Silicon is more likely to form bonds with oxygen atoms to create silicon dioxide (SiO2) or silicates. These compounds are stable due to the strong bonds formed between silicon and oxygen atoms.
Is silica the same thing as silicon dioxide?
Silicon is just silicone and silicone dioxide is one part silicon to every two parts oxygen.
What is the Freezing Point of silicon?
The element, silicon, freezes (or melts - same thing) at 1414ºC / 2577ºF. This should not be confused with the commercial product "silicone", a polymeric rubber made from silicon. There are many different silicon polymers called silicone, but one popular type used for bakeware melts at about 1000ºF.
What is the difference between - silicate - silicone - silicosis - silicon - silicic - siliceous?
silicate is a combination of silicon, oxygen and other element such as aluminium while silicone is made up of many compounds, silicon is chemical element which cannot be divided into other simple substances without splitting atoms, silicic and siliceous are compounds formed from silicon and other elements
Is there silicon in silicone?
Yes, silicone is made up of silicon atoms, along with oxygen and other elements such as carbon and hydrogen. Silicon is a key component in the creation of silicone polymers.
Is silicone an example of a semi conductor?
No, silicone is not an example of a semiconductor. Silicone is a polymer material, while semiconductors are materials that have intermediate electrical conductivity between conductors and insulators, such as silicon and germanium.
Is silicone made out of the element silicon?
Silicone materials are partly made of the element silicon, but most or all the silicon atoms in them are also bonded to oxygen atoms. Therefore, silicone materials do not have the chemical properties of pure elemental silicon.
What are five examples of silicon products?

What is the difference between silicone and latex baby nipples pacifiers?
Nothing really except some babies are allergic to latex. And some babies just don't like silicon. Every baby is different!!!!
