  • Silicon oxide is a pure hard crystal that's is formed due to chemical bonds between the different molecules of the oxide. It has uniaxial optic property.  
  • The beta structure of quartz has an angle of 56 degrees at its edges. On the other hand dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide, Rock salt is sodium chloride.  
  • They all are either ionic crystal or through hydrogen bond.
