How many corners of \(\mathrm{SiO}_4\) units are shared in the formation of three dimensional silicates?
- A \(3\)
- B \(2\)
- C \(4\)
- D \(1\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(4\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
If all the four corners, i.e., all the four oxygen atoms of each tetrahedra \(\left(\mathrm{SiO}_4\right)\) are shared with other tetrahedra, three-dimensional network structure is obtained. i.e., different forms of silica such as quartz, tridymite and crystobalite.
