it is a rock
A what Is composed of two or more minerals Gah Please what is it?
Rocks.
Most minerals are composed of how many elements?
Most minerals are composed of two or more elements. Some common minerals, such as quartz, are composed of just two elements (silicon and oxygen), while others may contain multiple elements in their composition.
Do minerals contain two or more types of rocks?
No. it is flipped a rock contains two or more types of minerals
Does a mineral have to be composed of two or more elements?
No. There are elemental minerals, like gold, silver, and copper, appearing in crystalline form. The bulk of minerals, however, are compounds of two or more elements.
What two minerals is bone composed of?
Crystalline and oxygen
Why is granite a rock?
It is a solid, naturally occuring, inorganic substance composed of two or more minerals. That makes it a rock.
What are polymorphic minerals?
Polymorphic minerals are two or more minerals that have the same chemical composition, but different crystal structures. For example, pyrite is isometric and marcasite is orthorhombic, but both are composed of iron sulfide. Similarly, diamond and graphite are both composed of carbon, but the former is isometric and the latter is hexagonal.
True of false very few minerals are compounds?
False. Most minerals are compounds, meaning they are composed of two or more elements bonded together. This is what gives minerals their unique chemical and physical properties.
How can you tell the difference between rocks and minerals?
A mineral is the basic building block of which all rocks are composed. Consider them to be the ingredients of a cake: the minerals being the flour, eggs and sugar etc. and the rock being an aggregate (collection/formation) of those minerals.
What is the relationship between compounds and minerals?
Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic substances with a specific chemical composition and structure, while compounds are substances composed of two or more elements chemically bonded together. Some minerals are compounds, as they are composed of specific chemical elements bonded in a particular way. Conversely, not all compounds are minerals, as compounds can be synthetic or organic in nature.
Are most minerals made of single elements or compound?
The bulk of Earth's minerals are combinations of elements.
