MINERAL REVIEW

WHAT IS A MINERAL?

Occurs in nature Inorganic (not made by something living) Solid Crystal shape

MINERALS ARE…. The building blocks of rocks!! Remember the granite…..

Black=Mica

Pink=FeldsparWhite=Quartz

HOW MANY KNOWN MINERALS?? 2,400

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SILICATES AND NON-SILICATES?? Silicates are made of silicon and oxygen, but

Non-Silicates are not!!

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ELEMENTS AND COMPOUNDS?? Elements are substance that can not be broken

down into a simpler substance by chemical means

Compounds are substances made of 2 or more different atoms that can be chemically bonded

HOW DID WE IDENTIFY MINERALS? Color Luster Streak Hardness Cleavage/Fracture Density Special Properties

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CLEAVAGE AND FRACTURE BREAKS?? Cleavage breaks are along a smooth flat surface

Fracture breaks are along a curved/irregular surface

WHAT IS THE ORDER OF HARDNESS TESTS WE USED IN LAB??

Fingernail

Copper Penny

Steel Nail

Glass

WHAT IS NEEDED TO CALCULATE DENSITY?

MASS

How do you determine mass?

Use the triple beam balance

VOLUME

How do you determine volume?

Cubes-L x W x H Irregular –

graduated cylinder
