Yes. Generally sand is mostly silica.
Reactive silica is a type of silica that readily reacts with alkaline substances, such as in cement hydration processes. It can affect the performance of concrete by potentially leading to strength and durability issues if not properly managed during concrete production. Testing for reactive silica content in aggregates is important for ensuring the quality of concrete mixtures.
Yes. Silica is the primary component of most types of glass.

Yes, mica schist does contain silica, as it is a metamorphic rock formed from the alteration of pre-existing rocks rich in silica like clay or sandstone. Silica is one of the main components of mica schist, alongside minerals such as mica, quartz, and feldspar.
Wet concrete is caustic- it will burn your skin. Concrete DUST is not good to inhale- it may contain silica. Solid, cured concrete is about as hazardous as a rock.
Cheese should not (and does not normally) contain silica.
Salt does not contain silica.
Calcite does not contain any silica. It is a carbonate mineral.
Yes. Generally sand is mostly silica.
Foods that contain silica are cucumbers and melons. These help skin, eyes, nails and hair remain healthy.

Testing for reactive silica content in aggregates is important for ensuring the quality of concrete mixtures.
Alkali-silica reaction is seen in concrete structures where reactive silica from aggregates combines with alkalis in the cement, forming a gel that expands under moist conditions, leading to cracking and degradation of the concrete over time.
Yes. Silica is the primary component of most types of glass.
