The thing is that I'm doing a research project and I need to write where did I get the reactions from. I mean, as they are really complex, I can't aduce that I did them myself.

And what about the black color of the solution in the reaction between iron and nitric acid.

Hello, Some time ago I asked you about the reations of orthoclase and biotite with nitric and sulfuric acid. Now, I'd be really grateful if you could tell me where did you get the reactions from. If you just knew how to do them, could you recommend me a book/webpage in which I can find them? Secondl...

Oh, so the parethensis in the reagents means that they might be present or not?

And why are the 6 and 0 between parenthesis?

Thank you so much again!

And could you tell me more less how the reaction adjustment would be?

Do you know how orthoclase and biotite will react when the get in contact with sulfuric or nitric acid? Their formulas are:

KAlSi3O8

K(Mg,Fe)3AlSi3O10(OH,F)2

I know it's something strange but I really need help with this.

Thanks

And why doesn't silicon dioxide react?

But where's the acid in the reaction that you are posting?

(SiO2)(Al2O3)(H2O)+H2SO4=?

SiO2Al2O3H2O+HNO3=?

I want to know what the products of these reactions would be.

Thanks in advance.
