A silicate is a mineral which contains the element silica.
Flourite is a non-silicate
Agate is a variety of silicon dioxide (SiO2); it is not a silicate.
Chrysolite is a silicate mineral. It is a type of magnesium-rich olivine silicate mineral commonly found in igneous and metamorphic rocks.
Peridot is a silicate mineral. It belongs to the olivine mineral group, which is composed of silicate compounds containing iron and magnesium.
Lithium is a non-silicate mineral. It is typically found in minerals such as spodumene, lepidolite, and petalite, which belong to the silicate mineral group.
Jacinth is a variety of zircon, which is a silicate mineral. Its chemical composition primarily includes zirconium silicate (ZrSiO4). As a silicate, jacinth features the characteristic silica tetrahedra structure typical of silicate minerals.
The grouping of silicate and non-silicate minerals is based on whether they contain silicon and oxygen. Silicate minerals are divided into smaller groups based on their structure. Non-silicate minerals are didvided into smaller groups based on their composition.
No, potassium silicate and potassium aluminum silicate are two different compounds. Potassium silicate is a compound composed of potassium, silicon, and oxygen, while potassium aluminum silicate contains potassium, aluminum, silicon, and oxygen. They have different chemical compositions and properties.
sylicate
Gold is an element and as it does not contain any silicon it is therefore a non silicate.
It is a nonsilicate mineral. It is an oxide.
Copper is a silicate mineral. Copper silicates are compounds containing copper ions bonded to silicate anions.
