Excerpt from book: 98 CHAPTER XVIII SILICON AND THE OTHER ELEMENTS OF THE FOURTH GROUP Carbon, which gives the compounds CH4 and CO2, belongs to the fourth group of elements. The nearest element to carbon is silicon, which forms the compounds SiH4 and SiO2; its relation to carbon is like that of aluminium to boron or phosphorus to nitrogen. As carbon composes the principal and most essential part of animal and vegetable substances, so is silicon almost an inevitable component part of the rocky formations of the earth's crust. Silicon hydride, SiH4, like CH4 has no acid properties, but silica, SiO2, shows feeble acid properties like carbonic anhydride. In a free state silicon is also a non-volatile, slightly energetic non-metal, like carbon. Therefore the form and nature of the compounds of carbon and silicon are very similar. In addition to this resemblance, silicon presents one exceedingly important distinction from carbon: namely, the higher degree of oxidation. That is, silica, silicon dioxide, or silicic anhydride, SiO2, is a solid, non-volatile, and exceedingly infusible substance, very unlike carbonic anhydride, CO2, which is a gas. This expresses the essential peculiarity of silicon. The cause of this distinction may be most probably sought for in the polymeric composition of silica compared with carbonic anhydride. The molecule of carbonic anhydride contains C02, as seen by the density of this gas; whilst, on the contrary, it can be hardly possible that the density of the vapours of silica, if it were to evaporate, would correspond with the formula SiO2, it may be imagined that it would correspond to a far higher atomic weight of SiBO2, principally from the basis that SiH4 is also n gas like CH4, SiCl4 is also a liquid and volatile, boiling at 57?that is, even lower than Cn4, ...
