Elastic Modulus of Silicon (Si) + Sources, Name Origin ... 2022

One important property is the elastic modulus which tell us something about a material's resistance (even for Silicon). Ok, so what is the elastic modulus of an atom of Si?

Note: Learn more about the elastic modulus here.

In the case of Silicon, the elastic modulus is 162 10³ MPa. Ok now let's dive into the facts about Silicon that people don't know...

Silicon Facts

Silicon Elastic Modulus

162 10³ MPa

Atomic Number

14

Learn more about the atomic number.

Sources

Makes up major portion of clay, granite, quartz (SiO2), and sand. Commercial production depends on a reaction between sand (SiO2) and carbon at a temperature of around 2200 °C.

Atomic Mass

28,0855

Learn more about the atomic mass.

Uses

Used in glass as silicon dioxide (SiO2). Silicon carbide (SiC) is one of the hardest substances known and used in polishing. Also the crystalline form is used in semiconductors.

Description

Amorphous form is brown power; crystalline form has gray metallic appearance. Seventh most abundant element in the universe. Second most plentiful element in the earths crust.

Atomic Symbol

Si

Name Origin

Latin: silex, silicus, (flint).

State at 20 °C

Solid

Discovery

Discovered By: Jöns Berzelius
Year: 1824
Location: Sweden

Video

Are you having trouble understanding the basics of atomic elements? This video will walk you through:
  • What is an element
  • What is a substance
  • What Elements look like
  • How a small number of atoms can be joined and form completely different substances

Citation

When you need to include a fact or piece of information in an assignment or essay you should also include where and how you found that piece of information.

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.

To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:

Luz, Gelson. "Elastic Modulus of Silicon (Si) + Sources, Name Origin ..." Materials. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>

Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.

Colored Periodic Table

Need an editable periodic table to edit? Maybe add your school logo, work team or anything else to make your paper look cool?

Along with basic atom / element information (like Silicon elastic modulus and all the other atomic data), it also comes with color coded info about: State (Gas, Liquid or Solid at room temperature), Groups/series details and much more...

How about an incentive to share this post? (You will help other colleagues find this blog)

Download and enjoy this complete and colored periodic table for you to edit and enjoy. It's in an editable excel format or .ods (open).
