In which of the following silicates, only two corners per tetrahedron are shared ?<br>(i) Pyro silic — p Block Elements Chemistry Question

💡 Solution & Explanation

(i) Pyro silicates : (1 corner O-atom per tetrahedron is shared)<br>(ii) Cyclic silicates : (2 corner O-atom per tetrahedron is shared)<br>(iii) Double chain silicates (One unit shares two corner O-atom while one unit shares three corner O-atom)<br>(iv) Single chain silicate : (2 corner O-atom are shared)<br>(v) 3D silicate : (4 corner O-atom are shared)<br>(vi) Sheet silicates : (3 corner O-atom are shared)
