Which of the following anions is present in the ring/cyclic structure of silicates ?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
If two oxygen atoms per tetrahedron are shared to form closed rings such that the structure with general formula (SiO 32– ) n or (SiO 3 ) n2n– is obtained, the silicates containing these anions are called cyclic silicates. Si 3 O 96– and Si 6 O 1812– anions are the typical examples of cyclic silicates.
