Silicon is the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust, and its compounds can be as ordinary as beach sand. However, silicon also plays an indispensable role in modern devices such as computers, cell phones, semiconductors, and solar panels. A recent technology incorporates silicon in nanometer-sized particles called quantum dots that act as luminescent labels for pancreatic cancer cells. Identify the electron configuration of a silicon atom.
