The building block of silicate minerals is called silicon - oxygen tetrahedron (this is the option A)<span>. This silicate ion is Si O4 (4-); it consists of one atom of Si, located in the center of a tetrahedron and surrounded by 4 atoms of O, located in the vertices of the tetrahedron. Given that the SiO4 (4-) ions have a negative charge of 4, they will bond to four metallic cations, each with 1 positive charge.</span>

Pls help I don’t understand at all
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Mass = 12.48 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sulfur dioxide = 25.0 g

Mass of sulfur formed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

SO₂      →        S   + O₂

Number of moles of SO₂:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 25.0 g / 64.07 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.39 mol

Now we will compare the moles of SO₂  with S.

                     SO₂        :          S

                        1          :           1

                       0.39     :         0.39

Mass of sulfur:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.39 mol × 32 g/mol

Mass = 12.48 g

If ice is warmed and becomes a liquid, which type of process is it?
ser-zykov [4K]
If ice is warmed and becomes a liquid, the process is endothermic.

The process requires heat in order to proceed. If ice stays in a very cold place, it will not melt unless it's heated. If ice is placed outside where it melts on its own, it gets the heat from the surroundings.
