Silicon reacts with fluorine
Carbon and silicon are known for exhibiting catenation, where they can form long chains or rings by bonding with other atoms of the same element. This property allows for the formation of diverse organic compounds and silicon-based materials.
Si is the short form for Silicon and silicon is not a metal.
The average atomic mass of silicon is around 28.09 atomic mass units. This is due to the natural abundance of the three silicon isotopes: silicon-28, silicon-29, and silicon-30. Silicon-28 is the most abundant isotope at about 92.23%, followed by silicon-29 at about 4.67%, and silicon-30 at about 3.1%.
Density.
Silicon has 14 neutrons.
Silicon is a noun. Verbs don't describe nouns, adjectives describe nouns.
silicon is a better conductor of electric current than sulfur is.
Quartz is silicon dioxide (SiO2); quartz is not a property.
Silicon also shows catenation ...but only till 8 atoms.
It strictly means the temperature coeffecient of a particular property of silicon: as the temperature rises, the value of this property falls. Such as electrical resistance.

Silicon is a brittle material and does not exhibit ductility or malleability. It is a semiconductor that is commonly used in electronic devices due to its unique electrical properties.
Sand is a natural product (frequently silicon dioxide or calcium carbonate) not a material property.
The blue-gray color of silicon is a physical property. Physical properties are characteristics that can be observed or measured without changing the composition of the substance, like color, density, and melting point.
Silicon allotropes can range from dark brown to black in appearance. Amorphous silicon appears as a dark brown powder or a shiny black solid, while crystalline silicon forms shiny, gray-colored crystals.
Additions of silicon make *Aluminium and Tin/Copper (bronze) alloys stronger, stiffer, more resistant to wear.
A: Because the element has different property as gallium arsenide.
