A mineral that breaks into jagged pieces exhibits this property?
A mineral that breaks into jagged pieces exhibits fracture.
When a mineral breaks into jagged pieces what is it called?
When a mineral breaks into jagged pieces, it is called a "fracture." This occurs when the mineral does not break along cleavage planes, resulting in rough and irregular surfaces. Fracture types include conchoidal (shell-like), fibrous, splintery, and uneven.
When a minerals break into jagged pieces it is called?
fracture
Breaking of a mineral along irregular surfaces called?
The breaking of a mineral along irregular surfaces is called a fracture. The splitting of a mineral along smooth, flat surfaces is called cleavage.
What is the tendency of a mineral to break along parallel planar surfaces called?
Cleavage
What examines a mineral's ability to break into even pieces?
Cleavage is the property that examines a mineral's ability to break into even pieces along specific planes or directions. Minerals with good cleavage will break cleanly and smoothly along these planes, while minerals with poor cleavage will break in irregular or jagged shapes. Cleavage is determined by the internal atomic structure of a mineral.
What mineral breaks in curved or jagged surfaces?
Limestone, and sulfur.
What mineral has the Tendency to break with rough or jagged edges?
referred to as fracture
What is the picking up and carrying away of the pieces called?
Rock, mineral or fossil collecting.
When a mineral breakage results in a rough jagged edge that edge is known as a?
fracture
What is the property of minerals that break with jagged surfaces?
The property of minerals that break with jagged surfaces is called "fracture." This type of breakage occurs when a mineral does not break along cleavage planes but instead produces irregular, rough surfaces. Fracture can be categorized as conchoidal (smooth and curved) or uneven (jagged and rough).
What is a long jagged mountain chain called?
A long jagged mountain chain is called a mountain range.
