$1$. Zeolites are aluminosilicates.
$2$. Aluminium can occupy two adjacent sites in zeolites.
Which of the following statements is correct?

• A. $1$ only
• B. $2$ only
• C. Both $1$ and $2$
• D. Neither $1$ nor $2$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $1$ only

Zeolites are crystalline solids structures made of silicon, aluminum, and oxygen that form a framework with cavities and channels inside where cations, water and/or small molecules may reside.So they are oftned refferedas allumino silicates.Aluminium cannot occupy two adjascent sides of zeolite. So statement 1 only correct.
