If a mineral has the same mass as quartz but has a greater volume how will density compare to the quartz?

The density will be lower.


How do you calculate the density of quartz?

Based on what information? In general, density is defined as mass per unit volume, so if you measure the mass and the volume, you can divide mass by volume.


What is the density of a piece of quartz when a mass of 13g and a volume of 5cm?

69 cubic centimeters squared


If a 60 kg granite boulder were broken down into sand grains and if quartz made up 35 percent of the boulders mass how many kilograms of the resulting sand would be quartz grains?

35% of 65kg. Total mass does not change regardless of how many pieces the object is broken into


What is the density of a piece of quartz with a mass of 13 grams and a volume of 5 cubic centimeters?

It is 2.6 g/cm3.


How could you tell the difference in density between the same size samples of quartz and galena?

By deviding the mass by its volume.


What is the plural of quartz?

The plural of quartz is quartz or quartzes.


What is the density of a piece of quartz that has a mass of 13 g and a volume of 5 cm3?

13/5 = 2.6 g per cm3


How does smoky quartz form from quartz?

Which has more mass quartz or pyrite?

There's no way to answer your question. More accurately, there is no way to answer your question without sounding like a smart-ass. We can't tell which has more mass unless we know how much of each you have to begin with! If you've got a pound of quartz and 10 pounds of pyrite, the pyrite is more massive, because objects with greater mass have greater weight. If you've got only an ounce of pyrite, your one-pound sample of quartz is more massive. Here's a question for you: What weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of rocks? Many people who answer too quickly say, "Rocks." And they'd be wrong. Since both weigh a pound, they have the same weight and, therefore, have the same mass. In other words, they both contain the same amount of matter. Perhaps what you meant to ask is What has the greater density? Density is mass per unit volume. So, if you had, say, a cubic foot of quartz and a cubic foot of pyrite, then you could ask Which is more massive? or Which has greater mass? That would be a question we could answer definitively. Quartz has a density of about 2.65 grams per cubic centimeter. Pyrite's density is about 4.9 g/cc. So a cubic centimeter of pyrite is more massive than a cc of quartz.


Plural form of quartz?

The word quartz does not have a suffix. Quartz is a noun and is a mineral that is white and colorless and made of silicon dioxide.


Why is it called Bull Quartz?

bull quartz is SiO2 (quartz) with no appreciable economic elements -- in other words uneconomic quartz
