Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
(A)In two dimensional sheet silicates, three oxygen atoms of `[SiO_(4)]^(4-)` are shared with adjacent tetrahedral `[SiO_(4)]^(4-)` units,
One oxygen atom is shared between two adjacent tetrahedra, `[SiO_(4)]^(4-)`
(C )All four oxygen atoms are shared between adjacent tetrahedra, `[SiO_(4)]^(4-)`
(D)Two oxygen atoms are shared between adjacent tetrahedra, `[SiO_(4)]^(4-)` forming a linear chain.
