What is the difference ferromagnesian and non-ferromagnesian silicates?
Ferromagnesian silicates contain iron and magnesium in their composition, which gives them a dark color and high density. Non-ferromagnesian silicates do not contain iron and magnesium, resulting in lighter colors and lower densities. Ferromagnesian silicates tend to be denser and have higher melting points compared to non-ferromagnesian silicates.
What are the four major silicate groups?
island silicates (0 shared oxygen) disilicates (1 shared) single chain silictes (2 shared) ring silicates (aka double chain silicates) (2 or 3 shared) sheet silicates (3 shared) framework silicates (4 shared)
How do sheet silicates differ from framework silicates?
Sheet silicates have a layered structure where silica tetrahedra are arranged in sheets with cations between the layers, while framework silicates have a three-dimensional network of silica tetrahedra connected in all directions. Sheet silicates have weaker bonds between layers, allowing for easier cleavage and flexibility, while framework silicates have stronger bonds, resulting in a more rigid structure.
How many oxygen atoms are in single chain silicates?
Single chain silicates have a chemical formula of Al2SiO5. Therefore, there are a total of 5 oxygen atoms in single chain silicates.
Describe the six main crystalline structures of silicate minerals?
Isolated tetrahedra silicates do not link with other silicon or oxygen atoms Ring Silicates form by sharing oxygen atoms Single Chain Silicates form a chain when sharing oxygen atoms Double Chain Silicates form when two or more single chains of tetrahedra bond to each other Sheet Silicates form when each tetrahedron shares three of its oxygen atoms with other tetrahedra Framework Silicates form when each tetrahedron is bonded to four other tetrahedras :)
What are the 2 main mineral groups and their subgroups?
The two main mineral groups are silicates and non-silicates. Silicates further divide into subclasses such as tectosilicates, inosilicates, sorosilicates, and cyclosilicates. Non-silicates include groups like carbonates, sulfides, oxides, and halides, among others.
What has the author I A Voinovitch written?
