What are different class of crystals?
Minerals crystals are divided into six systems depending on the relationships of length of axes and angles between axes. The six mineral crystal systems are: cubic, hexagonal, trigonal, tetragonal, orthorhombic, triclinic, and monoclinic.
The atoms that make up a mineral are connected to each other in definite repeatable patterns. A is the outward expression of this repeatable pattern?
Crystals are formed when the compounds in a mineral are arranged in a repeating pattern. It is a highly transparent glass mineral with a high refractive index.
Are all mineral crystals are made of ions?
Yes mineral crystals are made of ion's
How do you use quartz in a sentence?
The material used to manufacture piezoelectric crystals is quartz. Wrist-watch crystals are often made of quartz. Quartz is a transparent mineral. The statement "There are four quartz in an imperial gallon" is faulty, and logically meaningless.
What is formed by crystals and inorganic?
Mineral is formed by crystals and is inorganic
What is a mineral that appears in transparent hexagonal crystals?
What mineral that appears in transparent hexagonal crystals
What is zinkenite?
Zinkenite is a specific grey mineral with hexagonal crystals.
How many faces does a hexagonal crystal have?
If a mineral belongs to the hexagonal crystal group, then its crystals have six sides.
Is quartz a silicate mineral?
Quartz is not a salt; it is silicon dioxide, SiO2.
Why is quartz shapeless?
"Shapeless" quartz is usually associated with tectonic movements and metamorphic rocks. In granites it is about the last mineral to crystallise and it fills the spaces between the micas and feldspars. In a crystalline form it forms long hexagonal (six sided) usually clear transparent crystals which are topped off with a hexagonal pyramid
What is a bazzite?
A bazzite is a form of beryllium scandium cyclosilicate mineral taking the form of small blue hexagonal crystals.
What is a kind of mineral that occurs in crystalline form It is the most common of all solid minerals and may be colorless and transparent as well as colored?
The most common mineral in our crust is quartz, a crystalline form of silicon dioxide (silica). It forms colourless hexagonal crystals when it is pure, but may be coloured by impurities. Some examples of coloured forms are rose quartz and amethyst.
Is gypsum a salt?
No it is not a salt. Gypsum is a mineral that occurs in nature as flattened and often twinned crystals and transparent cleavable masses called selenite.

What is a special mineral with crystals inside?
This could possibly refer to a geode, hollow round nodules with crystal linings, or it could refer to an inclusion, which is a transparent mineral that shows inclusions of another, eg. rutilated quartz.
The atoms that make up a mineral are connected to each other in definite repeatable patterns. A is the outward expression of this repeatable pattern?
Crystals are formed when the compounds in a mineral are arranged in a repeating pattern. It is a highly transparent glass mineral with a high refractive index.
Is a bottle of mineral water transparent or translucent?
They're usually transparent.
