sugar crystal is a plant not a mineral but the only reson it is called a crystal is because of its shape seen though a microscope
Fluorite belongs to the same crystal system as salt - the cubic (also known as the isometric) crystal system.
Diamond is one mineral in the isometric crystal system.
crystal
Scientists use X-ray diffraction to study the crystal structure of minerals. This method involves directing X-rays at a mineral sample and measuring the diffraction pattern produced, which can help determine the arrangement of atoms within the crystal lattice of the mineral.
Triclinic is a crystal system that describes the geometric arrangement of atoms in a mineral. Minerals can belong to different crystal systems, such as triclinic, depending on their internal structure and external crystal shape. So, a mineral can have a triclinic crystal structure, but triclinic itself is not a mineral.
Yes
salt
Yes, a crystal can be a mineral. Crystal, or crystaline refers to the arrangement of particular atoms or molecules of a mineral or element which generates a crystal lattice. Hence, crystal is a term which describes the effect of the arrangement of molecules of a mineral, element, etc.
mineral
Yes, the crystal system a mineral belongs to is a property of a mineral.
Sugar is not a mineral
mineral
A mineral crystal is not necessarily a diamond, but a diamond is a mineral crystal. All minerals, such as diamond, have crystalline structures.
A crystal mineral is a solid composed of material extending in all spatial dimensions.
Yeah, you can melt anything if you get it hot enough. Be sure not to confuse the terms crystal and mineral. A crystal is made of a mineral, the fact that it is a crystal, simply means that it's atoms are arranged in a periodical and static way, in the crystal structure. This structure falls apart as soon as the mineral melts, so a molten mineral can not be called a crystal.
Powdered sugar crystal
Sugar crystals are a solid form of sucrose.
