What reading level is General Chemistry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The non-luminous flame of the Bunsen burner is smaller and hotter than a luminous flame burning the gas at the same rate.
CHAPTER XVII SILICON General. Silicon, the second member of the carbon group, occurs very abundantly in nature in the form of its oxide and various silicates. This element, next to oxygen, is present in the earth in the greatest quantity, forming as it does about one- fourth of the earth's crust.
Preparation. Silicon exists in at least two allotropic modifica- tions, one cry...stalline, the other amorphous. Some evidence also points toward the occurrence of two distinct crystalline forms, corresponding to graphite and diamond.
Amorphous silicon may be* prepared by heating finely powdered quartz, which is silicon dioxide, SiC>2, with metallic aluminum or magnesium; the reaction which takes place with magnesium is represented by the following equation, Si0 2 + 2Mg = Si + 2MgO The magnesium oxide is removed by treating the resulting mixture with hydrochloric acid.
Crystalline silicon is now being prepared on a large scale at Niagara Falls by reducing the dioxide with carbon in an electric furnace.
