Depending. When Granular Silicon Dioxide is heated, glass, is formed. (Also must be pressurized)
silicon dioxide actually has a relatively high boiling point at 1650.

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.
What is the major element in the sand?
SiO2--silicone dioxide, or silica. Interestingly, oxygen, and then silicone, are the two most abundant elements in the Earth's crust, with approximately 60.1% being oxygen and 20.1% being silicone.
What is the equation for iodine being heated?
iodine sublimes to form I2
What type of precipitation is caused by air being heated at the surface of the earth?
Convectional precipitation is the type of precipitation caused by air being heated at the surface of the earth. Convectional precipitation can fall anywhere on earth.
How did the properties of sulfur alone compare with the sulfur in the unheated iron sulfur combination?
Sulfur before being heated in the mixture weighs less and is less reactive than in the heated mixture.
What is the formula 'SIO2' for?
The formula "SIO2" is commonly known as silicon dioxide. Silicon dioxide has a wide range of purposes, mainly being glass manufacturing. In nature, silicon dioxide is commonly found as sand and quartz.
What happens to elements of the periodic table when they are heated very little or superheated?
It depends on the element being heated or frozen.
How is silicon useful for humans?
Silicon, as the dioxide, is the main component of glass. It has been suggested that silicon could be used as a fuel. First being reduced in solar furnaces near the equator, and then oxidized again at the energy consumption point.

Is silicone dioxide gluten free?
Being that it is basically sand or silica, I would have to say that it's a given that it is gluten free. Actually, this is a misspelling of silicon dioxide. Silicone is a completely different substance.
Can silicon be mined in its pure form directly from earth?
Although silicon forms roughly 25% of the earths crust, it is rarely found as a pure mineral (Si) in nature and so is not mined as such. I believe the primary source of silicon which is mined comes from high quartz content sands. Quartz of course being composed of silicon and oxygen, (silicon dioxide).
What happens when a fluid starts to cool down after being heated?
it gets coldit gets cold
What element does silicon form its strongest chemical bond?
It forms strong bonds with the most electronegative elements, i.e. oxygen, fluorine and chlorine. Oxygen being the most abundant of the oxidants is the strongest silicon bond that's common on Earth. For example sand is mainly silicon dioxide.
Is it possible for a pure quartz crystal to store data without being part of machine or without doping?
Yes, because it's part of the silicon family. It's silicon dioxide. I'm still figuring out if you need a machine or not
Is CaCO3 considered a solid after being heated?
After heating at high temperature calcium carbonate is decomposed in calcium oxide (solid) and carbon dioxide (gas).
What happens when Benedict's solution is heated?
the necessary chemical reaction requires a high activation energy so it needs the extra push from being heated as opposed to leaving it a room temp
What happens to materials when they are heated?
Most materials expand when they are heated. If they are heated enough, they may change from solid to liquid, or from liquid to gaseous forms.
