Probably Talc...
It's what they use in paint and maybe baby powder because of how easy it is to grind up.
Rocks that mostly contain minerals like mica, gypsum, and talc can be scratched by a fingernail.
The hardest mineral is diamond, and the softest mineral is talc.
The softest known mineral is 'TALC'. The hardest known mineral is 'DIAMOND' (according to Friedrich Mohs scale)
The softest mineral is talc, and the hardest is diamond. You can check this on the Mohs hardness scale.
Talc is the softest mineral. The Mohs hardness scale goes like this, from softest to hardest: 1. Talc, 2. Gypsum, 3. Calcite, 4. Fluorite, 5. Apatite, 6. Orthoclase Feldspar, 7. Quartz, 8. Topaz, 9. Corundum, 10. Diamond.
The hardest mineral is diamond, and the softest mineral is talc.
One of the softest rocks is Talc. Talc is a mineral not a rock!Minerals are pure, rocks can be formed from one or more minerals. A piece of talc is a rock formed of a single mineral.Clays, are rocks and can be very soft.
Talc is the mineral but I don't know the formula

A diamond and talc
Rocks have different hardness because of variations in their mineral composition and the way those minerals are bonded together. Hardness is typically measured using the Mohs scale, which ranks minerals from 1 (softest) to 10 (hardest) based on their ability to scratch or be scratched by another mineral. Rocks with higher mineral densities or stronger atomic bonds tend to be harder.
The softest mineral is talc, and the hardest is diamond. You can check this on the Mohs hardness scale.
Talc
the answer is talc.
Talc is the softest mineral. The Mohs hardness scale goes like this, from softest to hardest: 1. Talc, 2. Gypsum, 3. Calcite, 4. Fluorite, 5. Apatite, 6. Orthoclase Feldspar, 7. Quartz, 8. Topaz, 9. Corundum, 10. Diamond.
