Which one of the following mineral does not contain oxygen? (1) Haematite (2) Bauxite (3) Cryolite (4) Calcite

1 Answer

Answer :

(3) Cryolite Explanation: Cryolite (Na3AlF6, sodium hexafluoroaluminate) does not contain oxygen. It occurs as glassy, colorless, white-reddish to gray-black prismatic monoclinic crystals. Cryolite is used as an insecticide and a pesticide. It is also used to give fireworks a yellow color.
