What is the Mohs hardness test?
The Mohs hardness scale is basically a scale used for determining how hard a mineral. More specifically the scale measures the ability of one mineral to scratch another. The Mohs scale ranges from 1 to 10, 1 being the softest and 10 being the hardest. Some examples by hardness include: 1. Talc 2. Gypsum 3. Calcite 4. Fluorite 5. Apatite 6. Feldspar 7. Quartz 8. Topaz 9. Ruby 10. Diamond
What is the Mons scale?
A scale for classifying minerals based on relative hardness, determined by the ability of harder minerals to scratch softer ones. The scale includes the following minerals, in order from softest to hardest: 1. talc; 2. gypsum; 3. calcite; 4. fluorite; 5. apatite; 6. orthoclase; 7. quartz; 8. topaz; 9. corundum; 10. diamond. It should be Mohs scale. Anant
