Amphilbole silicate structure has 'x' number of corner shared per tetrahedron. The value of x is :

A

2

B

`2(1)/(2)`

C

3

D

4

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B


One tetrahedral shares three corners while other adjacent one shares only two corners hence average shared coners `=(3+2)/(2)=2(1)/(2)`
