2. Silicon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon

   Silicon is a chemical element; it has symbol Si and atomic number 14. It is a hard, brittle crystalline solid with a blue-grey metallic lustre, and is a tetravalent metalloid and semiconductor . It is a member of group 14 in the periodic table: carbon is above it; and germanium , tin , lead , and flerovium are below it.

3. Carbon group - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_group

   The carbon group is a periodic table group consisting of carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), lead (Pb), and flerovium (Fl). It lies within the p-block.. In modern IUPAC notation, it is called group 14.

4. List of chemical elements - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_elements

   A chemical element, often simply called an element, is a type of atom which has a specific number of protons in its atomic nucleus (i.e., a specific atomic number, or Z). [ 1 ] The definitive visualisation of all 118 elements is the periodic table of the elements , whose history along the principles of the periodic law was one of the founding ...

5. Periodic table - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

   A recognisably modern form of the table was reached in 1945 with Glenn T. Seaborg's discovery that the actinides were in fact f-block rather than d-block elements. The periodic table and law are now a central and indispensable part of modern chemistry. The periodic table continues to evolve with the progress of science.

6. Group (periodic table) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_(periodic_table)

   In the periodic table of the elements, each column is a group. In chemistry, a group (also known as a family) [1] is a column of elements in the periodic table of the chemical elements. There are 18 numbered groups in the periodic table; the 14 f-block columns, between groups 2 and 3, are not numbered.

7. Element 14 (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Element_14_(disambiguation)

   Element 14 is silicon, the 14th element in the periodic table of elements. Element 14 may also refer to: Element 14 (company), a former developer of DSL equipment created from the restructuring of Acorn Computers; Farnell element14, a brand and subsidiary of electronic parts distributor Premier Farnell

8. Chemical element - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_element

   The layout of the table has been refined and extended over time as new elements have been discovered and new theoretical models have been developed to explain chemical behavior. Use of the periodic table is now ubiquitous in chemistry, providing an extremely useful framework to classify, systematize and compare all the many different forms of ...

9. Extended periodic table - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_periodic_table

   An extended periodic table theorizes about chemical elements beyond those currently known and proven. The element with the highest atomic number known is oganesson (Z = 118), which completes the seventh period (row) in the periodic table. All elements in the eighth period and beyond thus remain purely hypothetical.
