1) SiO2+6HFH2SiF6 Fluosilisicacid +2H2O

SiO2 is soluble in HF due to the formation of fluosilicic acid and hence HF is used for ETCHING process
2) SiO2 Acid +2NaOH(aq)Na2SiO3 sodiumsilicate +H2O

SiO2 Acid +2KOH(aq)K2SiO3+H2O

SiO2 is soluble in base like NaOH, KOH due to the formation of soluble silicates
SiO2 donot soluble in any other solvents
