Native elements such as sulfur, gold, silver, and carbon in the form of diamond and graphite.
iron
Silicon and oxygen are the two most common elements in Earth's crust. :D I got this from the science book, which I noticed all of your questions are for. Do you have Science Fusion Dynamic Earth? AJHS Mr. Fogle? Whatevs...
In the Earth crust the most abundant are oxygen and silicon.
Two examples are quartz and mica. Minerals are also classified as metallic or non-metallic.
the two different elements that make up the center of the earth are iron and nickel. there have been recent studies that there might be other elements there, but we can not know for sure because there has been no artificial (man - made) objects that have been down there.
That's just how the designers made him.
The periodic table lists element and not minerals.
Rocks are made of minerals. Only a few minerals are rock forming and most rock is made from a combination of the commonest of these. feldspars, quartz, mica, olivine, calcite, pyroxene and amphiboles
Oxygen and silicon are the two most abundant elements found in the most common minerals. The most common minerals found on Earth are silicates.
because they are not elements...they are alloys
Just mixing two or more elements A compound is chemically combining two or more elements
A lot are, but a lot are chemical elements, too. I would guess that more minerals are compounded 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.
eve three elements can make a compound .
Substances composed of two or more elements bonded together in definite proportions are chemical compounds by definition. This is not a correct definition for minerals, because some of them are mixtures of more than one compound, and some minerals, such as gold and diamond, are elements instead of compounds.
The top two elements in the Earth's crust as a percentage are:Oxygen--47%Silicon--28%
Rocks which are made of minerals can be made up of many minerals and they can also be made up of only one mineral. Generally rocks are made of two or more minerals
