Chapter 9, Problem 9.6CTE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The validity of the statement about life on a distant planet cloud be based on silicon instead of carbon should be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Silicon is an element sitting close to carbon in the periodic table. Carbon has a tendency to form four bonded structure to give long chained hydrocarbons and polymers. This element is said to be the foundation for all forms of life on earth and is the second largest element found next to oxygen. The element next to carbon in the periodic table is silicon. With similarities in properties, it is envisaged that silicon could also be the part of life forming four bonds. Hence, it is considered to be a part of life on a distant planet.
