Why is glass resistant to acid and alkali corrosion?

The main component of glass is silicon dioxide (SiO2), and ordinary acids and bases do not react with it.

Hydrofluoric acid is the nemesis of silicon dioxide and can turn silicon dioxide into water.

Corrosion resistance of glass means that the substances commonly found in nature do not react with glass.

Hydrofluoric acid is not a common substance in nature.

Therefore: glass does not have any obvious chemical reaction with it in nature.

In other words, the glass is corrosion-resistant.
