Which substance is an example of a network solid?
Network Solids of Silicon • Silicon makes up 25.7 % of the Earth’s crust. 1. Quartz • A large 3-dimensional network with silicon and oxygen. • Each silicon is tetrahedrally bonded to four oxygen atoms. • Foreign metal ions in quartz produce semiprecious stones such as emerald, amethyst and garnet. O Si O O O Si OSi O O O O O
What are some examples of network solids?
Examples of network solids include diamond with a continuous network of carbon atoms and silicon dioxide or quartz with a continuous three dimensional network of SiO 2 units. Graphite a consist of continuous two dimensional layers covalently bonded within the layer with other bond types holding the layers together.
Which of the compounds below is an example of a network solid?
Network Solid Examples Diamonds are network solids made of carbon atoms. Quartz is a network solid made of continuous SiO 2 subunits.
What are some examples of covalent network solids?
Examples of network covalent solids include diamond and graphite (both allotropes of carbon), and the chemical compounds silicon carbide and boron-carbide. Network covalent solids tend to be hard and brittle (graphite is a notable exception, because its covalent network takes the form of a two-dimensional sheet of graphene just one atom thick ...
