2. (silicon, Si) A chemical element. Atomic number 14. One of the non-metal elements. It dissolves in a mixture of alkali, nitric acid, and hydrofluoric acid but is insoluble in water, nitric acid, and hydrochloric acid. Its chemical properties are similar to carbon. There are two forms: crystalline silicon and amorphous silicon. The former is in needle-like or plate-like crystalline form, gray and glossy, and does not undergo chemical changes when heated in air; the latter is a brown powder that can produce silicon dioxide when burned in the air. Silicon is an important semiconductor material mainly used in electronic components. Its compounds, such as silicon steel, silicon copper, and silicates, have a wide range of applications.
