Asked by Topperlearning User | 31 May, 2016, 01:14: PM
Expert Answer
CO2 is linear molecule and exists as monomer. It is gas while SiO2 is solid at room temperature due to three dimensional networks in which each Si atom is covalently bonded to four oxygen atoms tetrahedrally. In CO2, 'C' is sp hybridized while in SiO2, 'Si' is sp3 hybridised.
