piihappo
Piihappo is a general term referring to a group of chemical compounds that contain silicon and oxygen, with the general formula Si(OH)x. These compounds are often formed by the hydration of silicon dioxide (silica). The simplest form is orthosilicic acid, Si(OH)4. Other forms include metasilicic acid, H2SiO3, and disilicic acid, H2Si2O5.
Piihappo exists in various forms depending on the degree of polymerization and hydration. In aqueous solutions,
Piihappo plays a role in geology and biology. In geological processes, it is involved in the weathering
The solubility of piihappo in water varies. Orthosilicic acid is soluble, while more polymerized forms are
