What are minerals on what basis can the minerals be identified give examples? Minerals are natural chemical compound, uniform is structure and composition. They are obtained from rocks having one or more minerals. They are identified onthe bases of their colour,hardness and lusters eg iron,silver...
How many types of tectonic plates are there? How many types of rocks make up the Earth's crust? Oceanic crust is formed of how many layers? How many different minerals have been identified in the Earth's crust? How many volcanoes are on the North American Plate?
Mineral: Certain elements such as gold and carbon forms minerals by themselves and are referred as native elements. Chemical composition plays a significant part in deciding a mineral's physical properties. Answer and Explanation:1 The minerals can ...
The tendency of a mineral to break along planes of weak bonding is called cleavage.Minerals that possess cleavage are identified by the smooth, flat surfaces produced when the mineral is broken.The simplest type of cleavage is exhibited by the micas.Because the micas have excellent cleavage in ...
Laboratory experiments about how different minerals behave at different pressures Observations about how the Earth’s magnetic and gravitational fields vary over space measurements of how much heat escapes from the Earth’s interior Analysis of minerals from inside the Earth brought to the surface by ...
He became interested in science in his early teens, was fascinated by chemistry, collected minerals, and was interested in amateur astronomy. He preferred spending his time in the Library of Congress, in Washington, DC, to attending class in his high school and he read physics books. At ...
Here these challenges are addressed in a study that couples physico-chemical characterization with in vitro investigations and in silico similarity analyses for nine nanoforms, having different chemical composition, sizes, aggregation states and shapes. For cytotoxicity assessment, three methods (Alamar ...
Some phosphorus solubilizing bacteria/fungi (PSB/PSF) can also dissolve insoluble minerals and organic phosphates in soil to promoting phosphorus (P) uptake of plants [14]. Some endophytic fungi can also increase the diversity of nodular culturable endophytic bacteria due to their mycelia, which are...
