Quartz is a natural substance, SiO2, and has a number of properties useful to us. It has a high melting point compared to ordinary glass, it has some very useful piezoelectric properties, It has a high propensity to crystallize when in compound with other substances. Hence many of our precious jewels.

What state of matter is quartz?
Quartz is a solid state of matter.
Is quartz conductive?
Quartz is a poor conductor of electricity due to its crystalline structure and lack of free electrons. However, some forms of quartz, such as quartz glass, can be made conductive by adding impurities or by coating it with conductive materials.
Does light pass through quartz?
Yes, light can pass through quartz. Quartz is a transparent and optically clear mineral that allows light to transmit through it. This property makes quartz commonly used in optical and electronic devices.

Why does a quartz watch run slow?
A quartz watch may run slow due to several factors, including a weak battery, which can lead to inconsistent power supply, or damage to the quartz crystal, affecting its oscillation frequency. Dirt or debris in the movement can also hinder the gear train's function, causing timekeeping issues. Temperature fluctuations might influence the quartz crystal's performance as well. Regular maintenance and battery replacement can help prevent these issues.
