Only if they are hydrates. Different compounds can combine with a discrete number of water molecules, such as, for example copper.

Are all mineral crystals are made of ions?
Yes mineral crystals are made of ion's
Does molten rock contain large crystals?
Completely molten rock would not contain any crystals. Most magmas, however, are a mixture of molten and solid crystals of some sort. It is possible that a magma could contain larger crystals of a specific mineral.
Do rocks that cool slowly from magma contain more crystals?
No. They would contain fewer, but larger mineral crystals when compared to igneous rocks which have cooled quickly from lava or magma.
What are two extrusive igneous rock that contain crystals?
Basalt and rhyolite both are extrusive igneous rock that contains mineral crystals. However, the mineral crystals are normally less than 1 mm in diameter, and are therefore not discernible without magnification.
What is formed by crystals and inorganic?
Mineral is formed by crystals and is inorganic
Must all rocks form crystals?
All rock does not contain mineral crystals. Obsidian, or volcanic glass, in particular is a rock that has cooled so quickly from lava that mineral crystals were not able to form.

Do rocks have crystals?
Some rocks may contain crystals, but not all rocks contain crystals. Crystals can be found in rocks that have volcanic origin.

Why are all crystals of mineral halite Na Cl cubic?
All crystals of mineral halite Na CL cubic because of the arrangement of sodium and chlorine ions.
Do all crystals contain water in crystallization?
no
What is a mineral grains?
Mineral grains are crystals or pieces of crystals that vary widely in chemicalcomposition
What is formed by crystals and inorganic?
Mineral is formed by crystals and is inorganic
Are rocks composed of minerals?
Rocks are for the most part composed of one or more minerals. Obsidian is an exception because the mineral solution (lava) did not have time to form mineral crystals because of very rapid cooling. However, most obsidian will still contain some mineral crystals or crystal inclusions.
Is mineral oil a mineral?
No. By definition, a mineral must be a solid and have crystals
