Silicon is a relatively inactive element at room temperature. It does not combine with oxygen or most other elements. Water, steam, and most acids have very little affect on the element. At higher temperatures, however, silicon becomes much more reactive. In the molten state, for example, it combines with oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, and other elements. It also forms a number of alloys very easily in the molten state.

Which element on the periodic table has chemical properties that are most similar to those carbon?
Silicon, which is just below carbon, and Germanium are the two elements that are most like carbon.
How did Mendeleev predict the properties of silicon?
Mendeleev did not predict the properties of silicon.
How come SI and GE have similar chemical properties?
Silicon (Si) and Germanium (Ge) are located in the same group (Group 14) of the periodic table, which means they have the same number of valence electrons. As a result, they exhibit similar chemical properties such as forming covalent compounds, sharing electrons, and having the ability to act as semiconductors.
What properties did mendeleev predict for eka-silicon?
Mendeleev predicted that eka-silicon, which we now know as germanium, would have properties similar to silicon. He anticipated that it would be a grayish-white metal, possess a density of around 5.5 g/cm³, and have a melting point higher than silicon's. Additionally, he expected eka-silicon to exhibit similar chemical behavior, including the formation of compounds analogous to those of silicon. Mendeleev's predictions about eka-silicon were largely confirmed when germanium was discovered in 1886.
Are Name two categories used to classify properties matter?
Two categories used to classify properties of matter are physical properties and chemical properties. Physical properties can be observed or measured without changing the composition of the substance, while chemical properties describe how a substance changes into a new substance through a chemical reaction.
Is silicon an allotrope of carbon?
No silicon is an element in the same group as carbon, it has similar chemical properties but it is not carbon.
Which element on the periodic table has chemical properties that are most similar to those carbon?
