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. It is relatively unreactive.
These elements already have images but they are not the highest quality. These elements aren't too rare, so it shouldn't be too hard to find other pictures. Google's probably the best bet here but it may also be worth asking one of Wikipedia's element photographers (a certain person comes to mind) to see if they can get a better photo. Barium ...
English: This pictorial periodic table is colorful, boring, and packed with information. In addition to the element's name, symbol, and atomic number, each element box has a drawing of one of the element's main human uses or natural occurrences. The table is color-coded to show the chemical groupings.

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.
English: This periodic table of elements is color-coded to distinguish metals, nonmetals, and metalloids. Atomic number, symbol, name, and average atomic mass are shown. It contains updates from 2016. IUPAC named 4 new elements on June 8, 2016 (Niohonium, Moscovium, Tennessine, AND Oganesson).
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 ...
