  2. Silicon–oxygen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon–oxygen_bond

    Silicon–oxygen single bonds are longer (1.6 vs 1.4 Å) but stronger (452 vs. about 360 kJ mol −1) than carbon–oxygen single bonds. [1] However, silicon–oxygen double bonds are weaker than carbon–oxygen double bonds (590 vs. 715 kJ mol −1 ) due to a better overlap of p orbitals forming a stronger pi bond in the latter.

  3. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    [1] [2] [3] Introduced by Gilbert N. Lewis in his 1916 article The Atom and the Molecule, a Lewis structure can be drawn for any covalently bonded molecule, as well as coordination compounds. [4] Lewis structures extend the concept of the electron dot diagram by adding lines between atoms to represent shared pairs in a chemical bond.

    2 Si + 3 H 2 O → Na 2 SiO 3 + 3 H 2 Mg 2 Si + 2 H 2 SO 4 → 2 MgSO 4 + SiH 4. Products often vary with the stoichiometry of the silicide reactant. For example, Ca 2 Si is polar and non-conducting and has the anti-PbCl 2 structure with single isolated silicon atoms, and reacts with water to produce calcium hydroxide, hydrated silicon dioxide ...

    Again there is variation in composition: magnesium silicide is represented by Mg 2 Si, [9] calcium silicide can be represented by Ca 2 Si, CaSi, CaSi 2, Ca 5 Si 3 and by Ca 14 Si 19, [10] strontium silicide can be represented by Sr 2 Si, SrSi 2 and Sr 5 Si 3 [11] and barium silicide can be represented by Ba 2 Si, BaSi 2, Ba 5 Si 3 and Ba 3 Si 4 ...

  6. Lewis acids and bases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_acids_and_bases

    For example, NH 3 is a Lewis base, because it can donate its lone pair of electrons. Trimethylborane [(CH 3) 3 B] is a Lewis acid as it is capable of accepting a lone pair. In a Lewis adduct, the Lewis acid and base share an electron pair furnished by the Lewis base, forming a dative bond. [1]

  7. Silicon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_dioxide

    In dimeric silicon dioxide there are two oxygen atoms bridging between the silicon atoms with an Si–O–Si angle of 94° and bond length of 164.6 pm and the terminal Si–O bond length is 150.2 pm. The Si–O bond length is 148.3 pm, which compares with the length of 161 pm in α-quartz. The bond energy is estimated at 621.7 kJ/mol. [21]

  8. Silicate - Wikipedia

    n, where 0 ≤ x < 2. The family includes orthosilicate SiO 4− 4 (x = 0), metasilicate SiO 23 (x = 1), and pyrosilicate Si 2 O 6− 7 (x = 0.5, n = 2). The name is also used for any salt of such anions, such as sodium metasilicate; or any ester containing the corresponding chemical group, such as tetramethyl orthosilicate. [1]

  9. Silicon disulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_disulfide

    The material is formed by heating silicon and sulfur or by the exchange reaction between SiO 2 and Al 2 S 3.The material consists of chains of edge-shared tetrahedra, -Si(μ-S) 2 Si(μ-S) 2-.
