(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The molecular formula and charge should be given for the silicate anion.

Concept Introduction:

Silicates: It is frame work based on the linkage of cation cantered coordination polyhedron. The silica tetrahedral, the building block of the silicate minerals SiO44 is the basic unit.

Silicates minerals: All silicates minerals contain some combination of Si and oxygen (O), make up 96% of Earth crust.

Non-silicate minerals: It is indicated by the name they contain no silicon and fall into one of six class of non-silicate. It only 4% of earth crust is made of non-silicates.

(b)
