What minerals are iron oxides?
Iron oxide is rust. It is formed when the element iron reacts with oxygen in the water or air.
Which carbonates do not produce CO2 and why?
The carbonates of alkali metals (Ist group) do not evolve CO2 on heating because their oxides are highly unstable.
A covalently bonded compound that contains carbon excluding carbonates and oxides?
organic compound
Why Carbonate and sulphide ores are usually converted into oxides during the process of extraction?
It is easier to obtain a metal from its oxide as compared to its sulphides and carbonates. So the metal sulphides & carbonates must be converted to metal oxides to ease the extraction
What are metallic oxides?
metallic oxides are that type of oxides which contain metallic metals and oxides and which are cations like lithium, potassium e.t.c.
Minerals that do not contain silicon?
Sulphates, phosphates, oxides, halides and carbonates are minerals that do not contain silicon.
What Minerals that contain an element combined with oxygen?
The class of minerals called carbonates contain carbon and oxygen. One of the most common carbonate minerals is calcium carbonate, commonly called calcite.
Two other major groups of minerals are?
Carbonates and Oxides.
Types of minerals that contain large amounts of the element iron are?
oxides and sulfides
What are 6 categories of minerals?
Silicates, elements, sulfides, phosphates, oxides, and carbonates are six categories of minerals.
What is halides oxides sufates sulfides carbonates and native elements are blank minerals?
Nonsilicate
What are chemical salts Are carbonates oxides and hydrogencarbonates also salts?
- carbonates are salts.- oxides are...oxides not salts- hydrogencarbonates are salts
Do non silicate minerals have oxygen?
Many do. Oxygen containing minerals include sulfates, carbonates, nitrates, phosphates, oxides, hydroxides, and a few other varieties.
What are the 6 mineral groups?
Halides - contain halogens (group 17 of the periodic table) Sulfides - contain sulfer Carbonates - contain carbon, oxygen, and one other element Silicates - contain silicon and oxygen Oxides - contain oxygen and one other element Native elements - are pure elements There are others but these are the 6 major groups.
What are the nonsilicate mineral?
Non-silicate minerals do not contain the SiO4 ion. Non-silicate minerals are classified as oxides, sulfides, sulfates, halides, or carbonates. Some elements are also classified as minerals. There's also a metallic and non-metallic mineral classification. See the link below for examples.
What kind of elements are halides oxides sulfates sulfides carbonates and native elements?
What you have listed are not elements (except for the 'native elements'), they are classifications of minerals.
Which minerals are oxides compound ls that consist of oxygen and one other element?
There are many thousands of such minerals.
