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.


What is the role of sodium carbonate in the preparation of glass?

The typical glass (a sodium and calcium silicate) result from the melting of silicon dioxide, sodium carbonate and calcium carbonate; sodium carbonate ia a chemical reactant here but also help to reduce the melting point of SiO2.
