Ca2Al2Si4O126H2O

Ca2Al2Si4O126H2O is the chemical formula for a mineral belonging to the zeolite group. Specifically, it represents a hydrated calcium aluminum silicate. Zeolites are microporous aluminosilicate minerals commonly used in industry as adsorbents and catalysts. The notation "6H2O" indicates that water molecules are incorporated within the crystal structure of the mineral.

The precise arrangement of calcium, aluminum, silicon, and oxygen atoms, along with the water molecules, forms a three-dimensional framework with channels and cages. These structural features are responsible for the characteristic ion-exchange and adsorption properties of zeolites. The specific arrangement of these elements in Ca2Al2Si4O126H2O defines its unique structure and thus its potential applications.

While the chemical formula provides essential information about the elemental composition and hydration state, further details regarding its specific mineral name, crystal system, physical properties (such as hardness, specific gravity, and color), and geological occurrence would be found by identifying the particular zeolite mineral that matches this formula. Many different zeolite minerals exist, each with its own distinct structure and properties, even if their chemical formulas are similar. Research into this specific formula would likely point to a particular zeolite species or a synthetic analogue.
