Are there more silicon atoms than oxygen atoms in the silicon-oxygen tetrahedron?

This is the SiO4 anionic group. Thus, the answer you need would be that there are more oxygen atoms.


How many atoms are in a silicon oxygen tetrahedron?

Four.

How many silicon atoms are in a basic silicon-oxygen tetrahedron?i am thinking about 4..


How many oxygen atoms combine with silicone atoms?

The compound silicon monoxide (SiO) has only two atoms; one silicon atom, one oxygen. The prefix "mono" tells you there is only one oxygen attached; "bi" or "di" (such as in silicon dioxide) would tell you there are two oxygens (for total of three, in that example).


How many silicon and oxygen atoms in silicon-oxygen?

"silicon-oxygen" is essentially meaningless. Silica contains silicon and oxygen in the proportion 1:2, so is sometimes called "silicon dioxide", but it doesn't exist in the form of individual SiO2 molecules; they're bonded to each other in a large network.


Which two elements do oxygen and silicon contain?

Oxygen and Silicon are elements in their own right. They do NOT contain aanything else. However, Silicon and Oxygen can combine to form the molecule 'Silicon Dioxide' ( SiO2 ), of which is sand on the beach is an impure form, mixed with oxides of other elements.


How many elements are in SiO?

SiO2 is a macromolecule. Each silicon atom is covalently bonded to four oxygen atoms and each oxygen atom is covalently bonded to two silicon atoms.


What type of bond exists in a molecule of silicon dioxide?

In a molecule of silicon dioxide, there are covalent bonds between silicon and oxygen atoms. Silicon shares electrons with oxygen to form a stable structure, creating a network of alternating silicon and oxygen atoms.


What is the ratio between the atoms of silicon dioxide?

The chemical formula of silicon dioxide is SiO2. The atomic ratio oxygen/silicon is 2.


What types of atoms are in silicon dioxide?

Silicon (a metalloid) and oxygen (a nonmetal) are the two elements that compose silicon dioxide (SiO2).


How many oxygen atoms are in a silicon oxygen tetrahendron?
