Answer:

SiO2

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Non-metals are elements that react by gaining electron(s) to attain a stable configuration and form an anion.
  • Unlike metals, non-metals are characterized by being poor conductors of heat and electricity.
  • In this case, the formula that contains non-metals is SiO2, it contains silicon and oxygen which are both non-metals.
  • The other choices contain a metal and a non-metal
  1. BaO - Contains Barium metal and Non-metal, Oxygen
  2. KI - Contains potassium metal and Non-metal, iodine
  3. NaBr - Contains sodium metal and non-metal, Bromine
