Explanation:

Silicon is the 14th element on the periodic table. Its unit is SI. Its properties straddles between those of metals and non-metals and it is described as a non-metal.

It's atomic weight or mass number is 28u. It has an atomic number of 14 i.e in its neutral state, the number of protons and electrons are equal to 14.

Silicon belongs to the 4th group and the 3rd period on the periodic table. Elements in the same group share similar chemical properties. The elements in Si group are: C, Ge, Sn and Pb. The properties of Si is similar to these elements because they all have a valency of 4. Across the period, the properties varies this is why Si would have a very different property from Al and P.

<h3>What is an experiment?</h3>

An experiment is a scientific investigation that seeks to obtain cause and effect relationships. There must be a dependent and an independent variable in every experiment.

The average of the temperature readings is; 20 + 30 + 40 + 50 + 60 + 70 + 80/7 =  50

They used an interval of 10 degrees for the temperature readings. The boys should have kept the heating time the same. The independent variable in this experiment is the temperature. The boys can arrive at the conclusion that as temperature increases, a greater mass of copper sulfate is dissolved in water.
