Question

Look at the picture and identify the layer of the earth having the highest amount of Silicon? ​

Answer 1

Silicon is the seventh most abundant element in the universe and The second most abundant element on the planet, after oxygen according to the Royal society of chemistry. About 27 percent of the Earth's crust is silicon

Answer 2

Answer:

The sial is the Earth crust's top layer, which is made up of silicate and aluminium (Si = silicate, Al = aluminium).

Explanation:

Where is Silicon found:

Silicon is the second most plentiful element on Earth, accounting for 27.7% of its mass (oxygen is the first). It does not occur in nature uncombined, but rather as an oxide (silica) and as silicates.

What is Sial:

• The term sial refers to the composition of the upper layer of the Earth's crust, specifically rocks rich in aluminium silicate minerals, in geology.

• The sial is the crust's top layer, which is made up of silicate and aluminium.

• The silicates that make up Earth's mantle are a diverse group of chemicals with a silicon and oxygen structure.
