There are many properties of minerals. Some of these include color, streak, odor, hardness, tenacity, taste, as well as specific gravity.
Minerals are naturally occurring, inorganic solids that have a crystal structure and a definite chemical composition.
magnetic property , eg.-magnetite is magnetic.
odor, eg.- sulphur has an unusual odor
taste, eg.halite tastes salty
Streak, Luster, Crystal system, Cleavage and Fracture, Density.
Density
i dont know i dont even know how i got on this
yes it is part of identifying minerals. some are also color, streak, luster, density, hardness, etc. hope this helped!
Scientist identify minerals by Their Special properties. An example of a special propertie is a Chemical Reaction .
Only some properties are visually identifiable: color for example.
The stripe, and color
x-rays
Mineral,streak, and luster
they are natural, inorganic, and crystalline solids
Examples: chemical reactivity, toxicity, flammability, stability.
i dont know i dont even know how i got on this
First of all there are 6 and they are.... Fluoresence magnetism Optical properties reactivity And sorry, but that is all i now
reflect light , conduct heat , and conduct electricity
what are two physical properties about minerals
They are the properties that are unique to certain minerals such as flourescence or radioactivity
They have to identify their properties. That is how they identfiy the minerals. just kiddinq i dont know how can anyone help me!
Minerals crystal habit, cleavage, hardness, color and luster are the properties that distinguish minerals from other substances.
Those would be properties like magnetism, fluorescence, triboluminescence.
