Each piece of the mineral has the same crystal structure?
no not at all
Is the sentence true or false each piece of mineral has the same crystal structure?
that question iz absolutely trueFalse
What is the crystal structure of a sapphire?
Diamond crystals are cubic, and are based on what is called a face centered cubic structure. Each carbon atom is linked to four other carbon atoms in a cube. If you can picture a cube with its six faces, there is a carbon atom at each corner. Additionally, there is a carbon atom in the middle of each square face that is bound to each atom at the corner of the square. Links can be found below for more information.
What characterizes each type of mineral crystal?
A specific geometric arrangement of atoms.
Why are minerals considered to be crystalline?
Minerals are by definition occurring in nature, solid, having a specific chemical formula, and having a crystalline structure. When minerals form from a gaseous or liquid state of matter into a solid, their combinations of atoms arrange themselves into a crystalline structure, for example, a quart crystal. These crystalline structures are divided into six or seven (depending on what article you read) crystal systems by length and relationships between the crystal axes.
Does each piece of mineral have the same the same crystal structure?
No. Each mineral has its own structure.
Can each piece of a mineral have the same crystal structure?

Is true or false that the crystals in each mineral are the same shape?
Crystals of a certain mineral have a regular formation of atoms. However, crystals of the same mineral can grow differently. The presence of trace minerals, variations in heat, pressure, and the space that they have to grow in can influence the shape of a crystal. Crystalline structures demonstrate characteristic geographic variations for these reasons.
Explain why each mineral has its own properties different from every other mineral?
Because they each are made of different elements and therefore have different chemical compositions.

Is petrol and coal a mineral?
Both diamond and coal are formed from the mineral carbon, each with a different molecular structure.
Each mineral has a unique crystal shape because of the -?
Arangement of it's atoms.
