what is the diameter of earth in km UNANSWERABLE what is the axial tilt of the planet? Approximately 23.439281° describe the internal structure of it? It is divided into layers by their chemical or physical (rheological) properties. For eg. the outer layer is a chemically distinct silicate solid crust. what is a silicate? In chemistry, it is any member of a family of anions consisting of silicon and oxygen.

Silicate [SEP] Detection
Silicate anions in solution react with molybdate anions yielding yellow silicomolybdate complexes. In a typical preparation, monomeric orthosilicate was found to react completely in 75 seconds; dimeric pyrosilicate in 10 minutes; and higher oligomers in considerably longer time. In particular, the reaction is not observed with suspensions of colloidal silica.
