Why is silicon unusual?
Silicon is unusual because:It has a very high melting point for a non metalIt can conduct electricity better than the other non metals, but not quite as much as a metal.
Is silicon a metal nonmetal or semi metal?

Is silicon a metal non metal or melletoid?
Silicon is a metalloid
Is silicon a metal metalloid or non-metal?
silicon is a metalloid meanind it is both metal and nonmetal. it is the secon most abundant element on earth which takes up 27.7% of the Earths crust. it cannot be found in pure form
Is silicon natural?
Silicon is a marvelously abundant element, and it is most often found as an oxide. Many rocks are silicates, which are silicon oxides with a bit of metal thrown in. Sand us usually silicon oxides.
