Is silicon reactive, combustible, corrasive, and/or flammable?

Answer 1

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

Silicon is none of the above. I have a few small pieces of
elementary silicon; it's a steel-gray metallic-looking solid.
It won't burn (but will combine with oxygen or halogens
under the right conditions); it is not very reactive, and it
is not corrosive. You can handle it without harm.
The most common compound of silicon is the dioxide, quartz.

Answer 2

I work with electronics and i doubt it is any of the above you mentioned. Most IC's are doped with silicon cause its a semi-conductor. I mean if you apply enough power they will crack, smoke, and burn up. Ive never seen one in flames though.
