text: Silicon is a metalloid: an element with properties not quite like a metal, nor exactly like a non-metal.
text: Silicon and germanium are two chemical elements called metalloids.
text: Silicon already shows some incipient metallic behavior, particularly in the behavior of its oxide compounds and its reaction with acids as well as bases (though this takes some effort), and is hence often referred to as a metalloid rather than a nonmetal.
text: Silicon is a metalloid, which means it has properties of both metals and nonmetals.
text: Silicon, the naturally occurring chemical element that makes up silicone, is a metalloid, which means it has properties of both metals and non-metals and is the second most abundant element in the earth’s crust, after oxygen.
text: Silicon is a metalloid, which means it is a type of metal but has some nonmetal qualities depending on what element it is reacting with.
text: It makes up much of the Earth’s Crust and is a metalloid (number 14 on the periodic table) because it has properties of both metals and nonmetals.
text: But it is not a metal, it is a metalloid, which means it is a hybrid between a metal and non-metal based on its characteristics.
