What are inorganic or nonliving elements existing naturally on earth and present in all rocks called?
what elements naturaly on earth present in all rock
What do diamonds share with all minerals?
Diamonds share the property of being a naturally occurring crystalline solid with a definite chemical composition, as all minerals have. Additionally, diamonds are formed in the Earth's mantle under high pressure and temperature, which is a common process for many minerals.
What is a defining trait to all minerals?
All minerals are naturally occurring, inorganic solids with a specific chemical composition and a crystalline structure.
What is true of all minerals?
They are solid, naturally occurring, have a crystalline structure and a specific range of chemical formulae, and are inorganic.
What are the 5 minerals mined from the earth?
Five minerals mined from the Earth are gold, silver, copper, iron ore, and coal.

What minerals found in rocks can attract materials containing iron?
Magnetite (lodestone) is the most magnetic of all the naturally occurring minerals on Earth and will attract small pieces of iron.

How do we discover a bitumen?
Bitumen occurs naturally on the earth's surface all across the world - not least at La Brea - it has never needed discovery.

How is marble similar to other minerals?
It is a naturally occurring solid with a chemical formula and a crystalline structure, as are all minerals.

How does argon naturally occur?
Argon occurs as a result of the radioactive decay of 40K ( potassium 40 ) Potassium is common on Earth; about 1/60th of it's crust is potassium. Naturally occurring potassium is a mixture of three isotopes. Almost all of it is 39K and 41K, both of which are stable. About 1 atom in 10,000 is 40K, which is unstable. It has a very long half-life, >109 years; it decays to 40Ar which is stable.
Which characteristics do diamonds share with all minerals?
Diamonds, like all minerals, have a crystalline structure, a specific chemical composition, and are naturally occurring in nature.
What are the 5 minerals mined from the earth?
Five minerals mined from the Earth are gold, silver, copper, iron ore, and coal.
Where do nuclear decay occur naturally?
Radioactive Decay occurs naturally all around us. If you test for radiation with a Geiger Counter, you will find that it picks up radiation in the air around you. Mostly, however, radioactive decay occurs in the earth's crust. I cannot name a specific element, as there are many that decay.
In what layer of the earth are all rock forming minerals?
the earth's crust
