    The group 14 elements include carbon, silicon, germanium, tin, lead, and the man-made flerovium. They show diversity in their properties, with melting points ranging from 3730°C for carbon to 232°C for tin. All have four valence electrons. Carbon exists in several allotropes including diamond and graphite. Silicon is the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust. The group 14 elements form hydrides with hydrogen, tetrahalides with halogens, and a variety of oxides with oxygen. Their major uses include diamonds, glass, electronics, lenses, tin cans, solder, and radiation shielding.
