Carbon.
Chemical formula of magnesium carbonate is MgCO3. Magnesium carbonate contain magnesium, carbon and oxygen.
Calcium carbonate; carbon dioxide are two
Sodium carbonate contain sodium, carbon and oxygen.
In addition to carbon, organic compounds almost always contain Hydrogen and or Oxygen and Nitrogen
In addition to carbon, carbonate minerals contain
No. They contain oxygen and carbon. Hence the carbonate.
They can contain iron, silicon, aluminium and may other elements and compounds.
All carbon minerals contain antiquity elements.
The class of minerals called carbonates contain carbon and oxygen. One of the most common carbonate minerals is calcium carbonate, commonly called calcite.
Some minerals contain carbon, such as graphite and diamonds, however while they both contain carbon, the diamonds density is far greater.
Carbonate minerals contain carbon and oxygen in the form of the carbonate ion (CO3-), whereas silicate minerals contain silicon and oxygen in the form of various ions containing silicon and oxygen.
Most carbonate minerals are either calcium carbonate (limestone) or a mixture of calcium carbonate with magnesium carbonate (dolomite). However other metals can also combine with carbonate to produce much rarer carbonate minerals.
Examples of carbonate minerals would be calcite, dolomite, and aragonite. These are widely distributed in the Earth's crust. Less common carbonate minerals include siderite, rhodochrosite, strontianite, smithsonite, witherite, and cerussite. Minerals that are considered to be carbonates contain the carbonate ion, CO32−
Carbon.
All organic compounds contain carbon, but the reverse is not true: metal carbides, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, and carbonate minerals are not organic.
Chemical formula of magnesium carbonate is MgCO3. Magnesium carbonate contain magnesium, carbon and oxygen.
