Though available abundantly as silica and in various other forms in nature, silicon is difficult to separate from its chemical compounds because of its reactivity. As a solid, silicon is chemically inert and stable, but growing it as a single crystal creates many technological challenges UR - https://go.oreilly.com/university-of-glasgow/library/view/-/9781482232813/?ar ER -
