Explanation of Solution

There are three types of ceramics. Glass is one of three basic types of ceramics. The vitreous nature of the glass distinguishes it from the other types. All ceramic materials except glass have crystalline structure. The method of formation of different steps for the glass is different from those used for the other two types.

The major component in the glass making is silica, which is usually fused with other ceramic materials to form glasses. Silica is heated to a viscous liquid froma hard solid form and then shaped to the required geometry.
