​

Answer 1

Answer:

Each silicon atom is surrounded by and connected to 4 oxygen atoms, and each oxygen atom is connected to 2 silicon atoms. ... Individual silicon and oxygen atoms cannot move freely within the crystal. Thus quartz is said to have a macromolecular

Answer 2

Answer:

Here's your correct answer

Explanation:

Quartz is a hard, crystalline mineral composed of silicon and oxygen atoms. The atoms are linked in a continuous framework of SiO₄ silicon–oxygen tetrahedra, with each oxygen being shared between two tetrahedra, giving an overall chemical formula of SiO₂. Wikipedia
