Carbon dioxide is a gas but silica is a solid because:

1. Carbon dioxide is composed of discrete covalent CO2 molecules whereas silica has a continuous tetrahedral structure.

2. CO2 molecules are lighter than SiO2 molecules.

3. CO2 is more acidic than SiO2.

4. The melting point of silica is very high.
