SiO2 Structure

"On the Structure of Silica"

Between heaven and earth, everything has its own reason. In the genus of stone, silica ($SiO_2 $) is particularly strange. Its structure is exquisite and contains the secrets of nature.

The structure of silica, with silicon ($Si $) as the bone and oxygen ($O $) as the wings, intersects with each other to form this unique shape. Silicon atoms live in the center, like the stars and the moon. Oxygen atoms surround it, connecting in pairs to form a stable structure. Just like the beams of a pavilion, criss-crossing without losing rigor.

Each silicon atom is closely dependent on four oxygen atoms, forming a tetrahedron, which is the basic element of the silica structure. Many tetrahedrons are connected to each other, or in a chain shape, extending endlessly, like the veins of mountains and rivers; or in layers, overlapping and overlapping, like the layers of the earth; even more, intertwined, forming a three-dimensional network, strong and stable, like the foundation of a vast building, bearing the changes of time.

Such a structure makes silica unique. Its hardness is quite high, it can sharpen other things; its chemical properties are stable, and it is not easy to change after wind and rain. Looking at the world, silica can be seen everywhere. On the top of mountains, it is the quality of rock; on the banks of rivers and seas, it is in the shape of sand. Because of its unique $SiO_2 $structure, it can be unique in heaven and earth and add splendor to the creation of nature.
