Answer:
1. Largest Class - Silicates
2. Found in Caves - Carbonates
3. Contain Oxygen - Oxides
4. Contains Sulfur - Sulfides
Step-by-step explanation:
- Silicates are the largest and most abundant class of minerals present in the planet, their participation in the formation of terrestrial rocks corresponds to 75%.
- The caves with their structures known as stalactites and stalagmites form from the dissolution of calcium carbonate in water.
- Oxides are minerals resulting from the combination of oxygen with metals and metalloids.
- Sulphides are minerals that arise from the association of sulfur (
) with metallic elements.
