Solution

The correct option is D $S i O_{2}$
$C O, C O_{2}$ are linear shaped molecules where as $S O_{2}$ is a bent shaped molecule, $S i O_{2}$ is a covalent, 3-D network solid. Each Si atom is covalently bonded in a tetrahedral manner to four oxygen atoms.
Si in $S i O_{2}$ is $s p^{3}$ hybridised with no lone pairs.
