When each tetrahedron is bonded to four other tetrahedra silicates form?
I was confused by this question- if each [SiO4] tetrahedron is bonded to four other tetrahedra then each silicon has half a share of 4 oxygens- so the formula is SiO2- but that is not a silicate, that is silica, but thenIremembered mineralogists classify silica as a silicate!.If the odd silicon atom is replaced with say aluminium then you could form a network (3D) anion where there are both [SiO4] and [AlO4]- tetrahedra linked at the corners. The complexity of these structures is difficut to describe in words but there are voids in n the structure where the balancing cations sit. These minerals are called tectosilicates and include feldspars which are quite prettily colored. Tectosilicates are common in nature. Feldspars have formulae that have 2:1 ratio of O to the total of Si and Al atoms, for example KAlSi3O8,where 1 Si in four has been substituted for Al.
What is built elements?
built elements are creatios of humans for example cities,homes and concrete

How do you identify the number of elements in a compound?
The number of elements in a compound can be determined by looking at the chemical formula and identifying each element's symbol. For example, the compound CO2 has two elements, carbon and oxygen. Another example, glucose, has the formula C6H12O6, and has three elements, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

What is another example of native elements?
Native elements are a group of minerals with a molecular structure consisting of only one element. Some examples are gold, copper and silver.
How structure and function of computer are different.explain with example?
Structure means how different elements of computer are interlinked, how they are interrelated. While organization referes to operation of different elements of computers in a particular structure
Compound water is an example?
Water is a compound consisting of the elements hydrogen and oxygen. The molecular formula for water is H2O.
What is a homogeneous data structure and why is this a weakness for RDBMS?
in homogeneous data structure all the elements of same data types known as homogeneous data structure. example:- array
What are the differences between Homogeneous and non homogeneous data structures?
in homogeneous data structure all the elements of same data types known as homogeneous data structure. example:- array while there can b any type of data in non homogeneous data structure. example:- list
How do you access elements of array of structure in a function?
For example: struct { int fld; } v[2]; v[0].fld = 1;
Is sugar on the periodic table?
Sugar does not appear on the periodic table, because it is not a chemical element. Rather it is a chemical compound consisting of multiple elements: carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. For example, table sugar (sucrose) has a chemical structure of C6H12O6.
Why is oxygen naturally occurring and not synthetic?
Because it's an element? Elements are single molecule chains while synthesis involves building a more complex chain from smaller ones or elements. Since elements are the simplest building blocks that we know of, consisting as they do of only individual molecules, they cannot be synthesized. For example: Hydrogen and oxygen are elements, the most basic structure since we know of no smaller structure from which they can be created, water on the other hand can be synthesized by combining two hydrogen molecules to one oxygen molecule. However, whilst water can be synthesized it is also naturally occurring (for an example look at any large body of water such as the ocean) so that really depends upon your definitions. In conclusion no element can be synthesized since to synthesize a thing one must construct it from smaller parts.
What is a domain structure?
its a structure dude, for example there is no example and you have to find that example out to know the example. did you get it yo
The Cat in the Hat sat on a mat is an example of what?
The phrase "The Cat in the Hat sat on a mat" is an example of a simple sentence in English, consisting of a subject ("The Cat in the Hat"), a verb ("sat"), and an object ("on a mat"). It showcases basic sentence structure and can be used to teach sentence formation to beginners.
How many letters does the word 'consisting' consist of?
The word "consisting" consists of ten letters. Consisting refers to what components an object is made of. For example, water consists of hydrogen and oxygen atoms.
