Silica is silicon dioxide - SiO2.
True. High-silica magma, such as that found in rhyolitic compositions, has a high viscosity due to the increased bonding between silica molecules. This results in a thicker, more resistant flow compared to low-silica magma, which is more fluid and has lower viscosity.
no, it's silica
Opal is composed primarily of silica and water. It is a mineraloid, not a true mineral, because it lacks a crystalline structure.
Any metrial or thing which containts silica in it is call silica content..
where can silica mineral can be found
Yes. Silica is everywhere.
The chemical compound silica is an oxide of silicon .In other words; silicon is in silica.
Calcite does not contain any silica. It is a carbonate mineral.
Sand usually contains abundant silica, but it generally is not pure silica.
lava rich in silica
You can buy Silica Gel from: http://www.silicagelpackets.com/ They have just about anything Silica Gel related; Loose Bulk Silica Gel, Silica Gel Packets, Canisters, Dehumidifiers, Flower Drying Silica Gel, etc.
Krakatoa is silica-rich, meaning it contains a high amount of silicon dioxide (silica) in its composition. This high silica content is associated with explosive volcanic eruptions due to the interaction between silica and magma.
