Is silicon dioxide a mixture or pure substance?
Silicon dioxide is a substance (chemical compound) consisting of one silicon atom and two oxygen atoms.
What percentage of earths crust is made up of oxygen and silicon?
Oxygen and silicon make up about 75% of Earth's crust, with oxygen being the most abundant element at around 46.6% and silicon at around 27.7%. Together, they form the majority of the minerals that make up the Earth's crust.
Which is not a compound water carbon dioxide gas silicon dioxide oxygen gas?
Oxygen gas is made up of one substance = oxygen. So oxygen gas is not a compound
Is silica formed from nitrogen and oxygen?
Silica is NOT made of nitrogen and oxygen. It is actually made of silicon dioxide which means it's made of silicon and oxygen.
What is made by oxygen and silicon?
a crystal is made from oxygen and silicon but i dont no what type of crystal it is :) sorry...hope that helps

Is silscon oxide a element?
No. It made of silicon and oxygen, so its a compound. Silicon is an element and oxygen is an element
Is silica made of nitrogen?
No; it is made of silicon and oxygen.
How is Sio2 made?
Silicon dioxide is a chemical compound that is made from combining two oxygen atoms and one silicon atom. Under exposure to oxygen, a silicon surface oxidizes to form silicon dioxide (SiO2).
What is sand made of elements?
silicon and oxygen
