What else can I help you with?
Is it true or false mineral can scratch any mineral harder than itself?
false a mineral can not scratch any mineral harder than itself
What mineral has sulfur?
sulfur is a mineral
Which mineral is harder than iron?
Diamond is harder than iron. Diamond is the hardest known natural mineral and can scratch iron.
What is mineral group for sulfur?
Sulfur is an elemental mineral.
On mohs' hardness scale what mineral is harder than quartz but harder than appetite?
If you mean isn't harder than quartz but harder than apatite ( you spelled it wrong), that would be Orthoclase Feldspar. Else the minerals that are harder than both apatite and quartz are topaz, corundum, and diamond (diamond being the hardest, well the hardest non synthetic mineral).
Can sulfur get scratched by a nail?
No, sulfur is harder than a nail so it cannot be scratched by a nail. Nails are typically made of iron, which is softer than sulfur. Therefore, if a nail comes into contact with sulfur, the nail is more likely to scratch than the sulfur.
What mineral is harder than gypsum but softer than flourite?
Calcite is a mineral that is harder than gypsum but softer than fluorite on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness. Calcite has a hardness of 3, while gypsum has a hardness of 2 and fluorite has a hardness of 4.
Is the following question true or false a mineral can scratch any mineral harder than itself?
True. In general, a mineral can scratch any mineral that is softer than itself according to Mohs Scale of Mineral Hardness. This means that a mineral with a higher number on the scale can scratch a mineral with a lower number.
Is a Gray mineral harder than a white mineral?
No, there is no correlation between color and hardness in minerals.
Is diamond harder than gypsum?
Yes, diamond is harder than granite. Diamond is the hardest mineral known. And it is several times harder than granite.
Is sulphur a mineral?
Yes, sulfur is a chemical element (atomic number 16) found in nature as a mineral called sulfur or native sulfur. It is not typically considered a mineral in the traditional geological sense, but it can form crystal structures similar to minerals.
What will happen if there is a mineral harder than a diamond?
Our crystal ball has been broken, so we are not able to predict what might happen in the world should a mineral harder than diamond be discovered in future.
