Answer:
SiO2, better known as silicon dioxide is a giant covalent compound. This means that it has millions of strong covalent bonds in it. This is because of the sharing of electron pairs between the silicon and oxygen atoms. Each silicon atom is covalently bonded to 4 oxygen atoms.

ANSWER :
Silicon dioxide (silica) has a extended covalent structure similar to diamond. Each silicon atom is covalently bonded to four oxygen atoms. Each oxygen atom is covalently bonded to two silicon atoms. The overall ratio is two oxygen atoms to each silicon atom, giving the formula SiO2.
