Status update (at least 2 updates):

1.)Just went to a movie with my bestie, Phosphorus 

2.)Hanging out at the beach with my fellow sand members.


Overview (3-5 sentences, general overview on what it is):

Hi my name is Silicon and I am 189 years old. I am sometimes called Silex meaning "flint." I don't generally like 1410 degrees celsius when I am a solid because I will melt, and when it is 2355 degrees celsius when i am a liquid because I start to boil. There is a lot of me on Earth, since I am the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust and the seventh most abundant element in the known cosmos. I am the main ingredient in sand and people like to heat me up to make glass-like materials.

Information:  

Relationship Status: In a heated relationship with sand

 

Parent: Thomas Thomson

 

network: i..am.....METALLLLoid!

 

valence electrons: I own 4 valence electrons

 

reactivity: i really respond to a good halogen or any dilute alkalis  
state of matter: I like being a solid  
Location on Periodic Table:I live at 14 periodic table drive  

Birthday: I was born in 1823

 

Hometown: I miss my home in the Earth's crust

 

Group: 

 
Activities & Interests (2-3 sentences about the element and it's physical and chemical properties):

I like to stay away from birds because I am so grey and shiny, they tend to attack me. I do like to go to the spa where they heat me to form my glassy figure.

 


Places ("check in " with at least 3 places the element can be found):

At the beach with my friends 

Just chilling in the Earth's crust. 

Checking in from Silicon Valley and about to be turn into a computer chip

What characteristic properties make Bill Gates love you?

You are considered a metalloid. Name a property of yours that's like a metal and a property of yours that's like a non-metal.
