Is aluminium biodegradable or non biodegradable?
Aluminum is non biodregradable because it cannot be broken down into simpler substances
Is feldspar metalic?
no, feldspar is a mineral.
What is an substance that cannot be broken down?
An element is the only substance that cannot be broken down.
Is sphalerite metallic or nonmetallic?
Yes, it is a silicate mineral."Feldspar is the mineral name given to a group of minerals distinguished by the presence of aluminum (Al) and the silica ion (SiO4) in their chemistry. This group includes aluminum silicates of soda (sodium oxide), potassium (potassium oxide), or lime (calcium oxide). Feldspar is the single most abundant mineral group on Earth."Read more at the link below.
What is the most common end product of chemical weathering of feldspar?
Feldspar breaks down giving us Al, Si and O in solution. You also get clay minerals left behind.
What compounds is broken down to make aluminum?
Aluminum oxide
What element makes up feldspar?
It depends on the type of feldspar. Potassium Feldspar (also called K-Spar), contains potassium, aluminum, silicate: KAlSi3O8. Plagioclase Feldspar, on the other hand, contains calcium or sodium, aluminum, and silicate: NaAlSi3O8 or CaAl2Si2O8.
What is a kind of rock containing aluminum's silicates and other minerals?
feldspar
What mineral is not scratched with feldspar and the mineral doesn't powder or wear down the feldspar?
Quartz
What rock contains aluminum silicates and other minerals?
Bauxite is the main source of aluminum. Albite is a feldspar mineral and is a sodium aluminum silicate All rocks contain other minerals.
Is a can biodegradable?
An item that is not biodegradable is something that cannot be easily broken down by living organisms. A usual can is aluminum and this material is not biodegradable.
Is aluminium biodegradable or non biodegradable?
Aluminum is non biodregradable because it cannot be broken down into simpler substances
What type of rock contains aluminum silicates and other minerals?
The real question is what type of rock doesn't contain aluminum sillicates and other mineralsBut if you really want the answer I suppose I will tell you. It's feldspar. Happy?
How and why aluminum is extracted by electrolysis?
Aluminium is extracted using electrolysis only! Electrolysis is the process where ionic substances are broken down into simpler substances using electricity
