Breakage hardness and Crystal shape
How does bonding and minerals contribute to the way the mineral breaks
Cleavage is when minerals break along planes of weak chemical bonds if there are no weak bonds minerals break with fracture
How does bonding influence mineral hardness
Bonds connecting atoms have different strengths scratching occurs as bonds in atoms are broken minerals with a higher hardness have stronger bonds
Describe three ways minerals can form
As magma cools atoms arranged into different minerals when salt water evaporates minerals may be left behind -water disappears changes in chemistry of salt water cause minerals to crystallize water is still there
