Introduction:

Every oxygen atom bond with two silicon atoms and this oxygen is known as bridging oxygen.

During the addition of Na2O to SiO2, the oxygen ion which is associated with Na2O forms a bond with a single silicon atom, and the other two sodium ions are not bonded to silica structure. This results in breaking of the structure SiO2 at the non-bridging oxygen atom which weakens the SiO2 structure.
