Question 1

The chemistry of silicon is dominated by its bonding with

◦ Cl
◦ S
◦ Al
◦ F
◦ None of these are correct.

Question 2

The compound SiO2 does not exist as a discrete molecule while CO2 does. This can be explained because:

◦ The Si—O bond is unstable.
◦ The Lewis structure of SiO2 has an even number of electrons.
◦ The SiO2 is a solid while CO2 is a gas.
◦ The 3p orbital of the Si has little overlap with the 2p of the O.
◦ None of these are correct.
