A comparison of carbon dioxide and silicon dioxide
You can also compare the similarity of carbon (diamond), silicon Si and silicon dioxide SiO2 - the bonding diagrams say it all.
All three have a similar 3D giant covalent structure, like the one above or on the right, which could be carbon (diamond) or the element silicon.
They will therefore share a similar set of physical properties described above for silicon dioxide.
