Hornblende and the other amphiboles have what type of silicate structure?
double chains
Is Cleavage in silicate minerals is related to the silicate structure?
yes
What is the grouping of silicate and non-silicate minerals based on?
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.
Minerals with the silicon-oxygen structure are classified into what group?
They are in the silicate group.
What is the cost of hornblend?
Hornblende is composed of Calcium, Sodium, Magnesium ,Iron and Aluminum Silicate Hydroxide. It is occasionally polished as a gemstone for jewelry and runs in the less expensive end, $35 for a pendant size sliver.
Hornblende and the other amphiboles have what type of silicate structure?
double chains
Which is not a type of silicate structure?
Pentagonal
What kind of minerals does not go with quartz feldspar fluorite or hornblende?
Fluorite does not go with the others. It belongs to Halide minerals, while the others (quartz, feldspar, and hornblende) belong to Silicate family of minerals.
A sheet like silicate structure is?
A sheet like silicate structure is known as a phyllosilicate.
Is Cleavage in silicate minerals is related to the silicate structure?
yes
What is the structure of celestine crystal or silicate?
Celestine is not a silicate, it is a sulfate!
Which silicate mineral forms a double chain silicate structure?
amphibole
Two Examples of a non-silicate structure?
Ice structure and Diamond structure.(two more examples of a non-silicate structure: Pyrite structure and natural gas hydrates).
What is the hardest silicate structure?
metal
What type of rock is hornblende diorite?
Hornblende diorite is a type of intrusive igneous rock. It is composed primarily of plagioclase feldspar, hornblende, and small amounts of other minerals. It has a medium to coarse-grained texture and is typically gray or greenish in color.
Which Silicate structure is the strongest one?
Tectosilicates (Formative)
What is the grouping of silicate and non-silicate minerals based on?
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.
