Is silicon number 14 on the periodic table a solid gas or liquid or combinations?

Question

Frank N · Accepted Answer

Silicon is solid below 1687K, gas above 3538K, and liquid in between, all at one atmosphere pressure.  Look for a phase diagram if you need detail at other pressures.  Not all elements can exist in all three states.
