Although all minerals have an orderly internal arrangement of atoms crystalline structuremost mineral samples do not visibly demonstrate their crystal form why?

Minerals can form in clumps, as a druse over existing surfaces, and a variety of other ways, all under different conditions. Quick cooling igneous rocks are composed of minerals, but the crystalline structure is too small to see with the naked eye. Euhedral (perfectly formed, visible crystals demonstrating the typical crystal form) crystals in most minerals are a rare find for the average collector.

Are crystals minerals?
Both. Rocks are made of minerals.
How are the atomic numbers and the atomic masses of the elements related to how the elements are arranged on peridoic table?
Elements are arranged in a periodic table by atomic number, lower on top and left. Atomic masses have no direct relationship to the arrangement of atoms, although generally atoms with higher atomic numbers will have higher atomic masses. (There are at least three exceptions for atoms with atomic numbers differing by 1.)
How is a mineral different from a rock?
A rock is a solid object made up of many minerals. If you imagine a pizza for a moment...the pizza is a rock. It is made up of different things, like cheese, and pepperoni, and sauce, and crust. The toppings are like minerals. Cheese alone is not a pizza. This is similar to a rock, where one mineral does not make up a rock.A rock is a solid object made up of many minerals.

Is diamond a nonmetallic mineral or a metallic mineral?
A non-metal False becasue it is not a eleament sorry It Is a Poor Conductor Of Heat Because It Is Made Of Carbon .That Is Not A Metal
How is chlorine obtained?
Chlorine is obtained mainly from the ocean although many minerals have it.!(:
Why element makes diamonds and pencil lead?
Carbon constitutes pencil lead, charcoal and diamond. Although they appear different in appearance, they are chemically the same. Diamond is shiny and hard due to the crystalline arrangement of carbon atoms in it. Graphite or pencil lead has such an arrangement, that there are free electrons which make it a conductor of electricity. Elements like this, which are chemically the same but exhibit different physical properties are called allotropes, and the phenomenon is termed as allotropy.
What is ironic about the arrangement of the Armies for the battle in The Hobbit?
Although the Elves and Dwarfs hate each other, they are fighting for the same "side".
Is plastic a solid crystalline?
Some plastics are, some are not. Polymers like polyethylene and polypropylene can be partially crystalline. Typical commercial polystyrene is not crystalline, although a crystallized resin form (syndiotactic polystyrene) has been produced that resists deformation up to about 270 degrees C.
What is a functional consequence of the shape and arrangement of the superior and inferior articular processes of the lumbar vertebrae?
The arrangement favours the rotational movement around the vertical axis. Although it is possible to have some flexion, extension and lateral bending moments also.

Are things made of ionic bonds soft?
ionic substances tend to be crystalline and brittle- although they are often encounterd as fine powders so these physical characteristics are not apparent
Is ORC a safe investment?
I would say that although the arrangement is slightly dissatisfying, ORC will definitely put somewhere down the right end.
What is the opposite of example?
The opposite would have to be "non-example" which is not an actual word although it appears in Wiktionary.The opposite of inspiration by example would be inspiration by appeal.
In trying to make a prima facie case are documents regarding a business arrangement sufficient evidence to prove to Court that the arrangement was intentionally misrepresented by family lawyer?
If the documents include, for example, a letter from the lawyer that describes the arrangement differently from the arrangement itself, then perhaps, although intent is generally proven from all of the facts and circumstances. The family lawyer can seek to rebut your prima facie case with evidence of no mal intent, such as his / her sworn testimony, correspondence, etc.
Why do we use some solids crystals in daily life?
Making steel, steel is definitely crystalline. Making eggnog, eggs are crystalline. Making hard tack candy, making fudge although sugar is considered noncrystalline, you are varying the phases of sugar to include one large sugar crystal to get hard tack and annealing the fudge to avoid the formation of sugar crystals.
Envince in a sentence?
The word you require is evince. It means to reveal, verify, substantiate, demonstrate, corroborate, etc... It is used in the same way as convince although, as evinced by its definition, the words are not synonymous.
