What group of rocks forming minerals that contain silicon and oxygen?
silicates
What are dark silicates?
Dark, or ferromagnesian, silicates are dark in color and have a specific gravity ranging from about 3.2 - 3.6. They also contain mostly iron and magnesium.
Minerals that contain the elements silicon and oxygen are called?
These are the building blocks of silicates.
What are minerals that contain oxygen and silicon?
They are classified as silicates, one of the more common being the mineral quartz which is composed only of the elements silicon and oxygen (SiO2). Other silicate minerals may include one or more other elements as well in their chemical formula.
What mineral groups contain silicon?
These elements are part of the makeup of 99% of all minerals on Earth.

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 two elements make up silicates?
Silicon and oxygen
What mineral group does silicon and oxygen elements form?
silicates
What are nonsilicate minerales?
they are the opposite of silicates and silicates are a type of mineral such as garnet. silicates contain silicon and oxegyn joined together:)lo suck ittttttttt
How do most elements on earth occur?
Most elements on the Earth occur as oxides or silicates.
If all silicates contain silicon and oxygen why are there so many different kinds of silicate minerals?
Silicates contain mostly silicon and oxygen. The different types of silicate also contain other materials, but the base materials are silicate and oxygen
Elements and compounds starts with s has c in it and ends with s?

Do all carbonates contain silicon and oxygen atoms?
No. Silicates do however.
