Options:
Answer:
Solution:
Borosilicate glasses contains B and sometimes Al. It can withstand heat changes without cracking. Such glasses are widely used for making good quality laboratory equipments. This glass has low coefficient of expansion.
Calcium-alkali-silicate glass is made by heating alkali metal carbonate,and. This glass is used as domestic glass for windows and bottles.
Most of CaO can be replaced by PbO giving lead glass, which has higher reflective index and is used for making optical parts (lenses) and glass ornaments.
Soda glass is obtained by heating,and. It is used for cheap laboratory glass wares.
