Can talc scratch glass?

No. Talc is the softest mineral. It can't scratch anything that is harder that itself. Talc is number 1 on the Mohs scale, a scale of hardness, but diamond is number 10, which means that diamond is very much the harder of the two. You can't even scratch a diamond with a fingernail, hardness of about 2.5, so talc with even less hardness doesn't stand a chance against the mighty diamond!
