Question

In which of the following silicate structure, the number of corner shared per tetrahedron is $2$?

• A. Four membered cyclic silicate
• B. Pyrosilicate
• C. Orthosilicate
• D. $2D-$Silicate

Answer 1

The correct option is A Four membered cyclic silicate

Solution:- (A) Four membered cyclic silicate

In cyclic silicate $\left[{\left({Si{O}_3}^{-2}\right)}_n\right]$, the number of corner shared per tetrahedron is $2$.
