What is the most common end product of chemical weathering of quartz is?
silicon
How does silicon carbide differ from quartz?
Silicon carbide consists of silicon and carbon, quartz consists of silicon and oxygen.
Does silica contain carbon?
They do not normally. Their chemical formula is SiO2 (silicon dioxide). However, the different colours of quartz follow when there are impurities in the mineral, and so carbon could be an impurity which can cause a certain colour of quartz.
What is the difference between sand and quartz sand?

What are the chemical properties of silicon dioxide?
Silicon dioxide, chemical formula SiO2, if that's the substance you were thinking of, is the oxide of silicon. At room temperature, it is a clear, hard, brittle glassy substance. In fact, SiO2 is the main ingredient in window glass, the other one being lime. It forms the mineral quartz. Quartz granules are the main component of sand.
