Hey friend,

Here is the answer :-

◼ Silica : Silicon oxide is also known as silica. It exists most abundantly in solid state in the nature and it is frequently used in production of glass, cement etc. The substance like Quartz is a crystalline form of silica.

◼ Alumina : This occurs in nature in the form of bauxite, corundum etc. It is also found in the form of gems. On large level it is manufactured by the bauxite ore. This is white and incrystallined and is soluble in water.

This is used frequently in the production of artificial gems, in the preparation of aluminum and its various complex compounds, as a catalyst, in layer lining of blast furnace etc.
