Atoms like Silicon may lose electrons, which in turn require ionization energy. Ok but how much ionization is required for an atom of Si?
Note: Learn more about ionization energy here.
In the case of Silicon the first ionization energy is 786.5 kilojoules per mole. Now let me show you some cool facts about Silicon:
Learn more about the atomic number.
Learn more about the atomic mass.
Year: 1824

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. "Ionization Energy of Silicon (Si) [& State, Uses, Discovery ..." 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.

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
SiName Origin
Latin: silex, silicus, (flint).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.Discovery
