No, it isn't. I may be possible to get it to act like one if you mix other things in with it and melt it, but as a solid, it won't work. Silica is a mineral, and it is generally silicon dioxide - sand. It makes a poor (read: non-functional) electrolyte.

What is chemical formula of quartz?
Silica (silicon dioxide, SiO2)
Chemical formula for silicon dioxide?
The formula SiO2 belongs to silicon dioxide. Another name for silicon dioxide is sand!
Is sugar water an electrolyte or non electrolyte?
Its a non electrolyte.
How do you determine the number of silicon atoms in 4SiO2?
4SiO2 means SiO2 + SiO2 + SiO2 + SiO2 The '4 'tells you that there are four seprate molecules of SiO2 So there will be 4 silicon atoms in 4SiO2 SiO2 also contains 2 oxygen atoms. So overall there will be 4 x 2 = 8 oxygen atoms. SiO2 is silicon dioxide ; sand that you find on a beach. It does form large crystal lattice by a loose combination through the oxygen atoms.
Is HF an electrolyte or non-electrolyte?
In (aquous) solution it is an electrolyte
What is chemical formula of quartz?

How many moles are in 147 grams of SiO2?
147 (g) SiO2 / 60.1 (g/mol) = 2.446 mol SiO2(the molar mass of SiO2 is 60.1 g/mol)
What is the formula for silicate?
Sand is a mixture of many different compounds, but the main component is Silicon dioxide, SiO2 .
Chemical formula for silicon dioxide?
The formula SiO2 belongs to silicon dioxide. Another name for silicon dioxide is sand!
Magma that contains SiO2?
All magma contains SiO2. What affects magma is the amount of SiO2 in it. Magma is classified into four basic groups that can be determined by how much silica it contains by weight. Felsic: >63% SiO2 Untermediate: 52-63% SiO2 Mafic: 45-52%SiO2 Ultramafic: <45% SiO2 This spectrum is a basic guide to silicate magmas, which encompass that vast majority of magma. One exception is rare carbonatite magma, which is carbonate rather than silicate based, and even that contains some SiO2.

Is hno2 and electrolyte or a non electrolyte?
It is an electrolyte

In (aquous) solution it is an electrolyte
Is ammonium sulphate a strong electrolyte weak electrolyte or non-electrolyte?
It is a strong electrolyte
How much of SiO2 would you start with to prepare 0.30kg of glass?
225 grams SiO2 0.30 kg glass*(1000 g glass/1 kg glass)*(75 g SiO2/100 g glass) = 225 g SiO2
Is sio2 metal?
No, it is not.
