(b) The boric oxide replaces CaO and Na2O to increase the melting point and improve the glassware resistance to thermal shock. (c) The boric oxide replaces CaO and Na2O to increase the ability of glassware to resist expansion and withstand heat changes without cracking. (d) The boric oxide replaces CaO and Na2O to increase its alkali content and make it less prone to chemical attack. (2) 1.27 Which statement on silicones, given below, is false? (a) Their commercial uses include: fluids, oils, elastomers (rubbers) and resins. (b) Silicones are organosilicon polymers. (c) Silicones are water soluble because a silicone chain is surrounded by inorganic side groups. (d) Hydrolysis of alkyl substituted chlorosilanes led to long-chain polymers called silicones.
