What is a mineral that is made out of a pure element?
Diamond is a mineral made up of Carbon.
What can a mineral not be?
A mineral cannot be organic. A mineral cannot be made by or composed of life forms.
A milky white mineral made of silica?
A milky white mineral made up of silica is quartz. Quartz is the second most abundant mineral on the Earth's crust.
Why are diamonds made from graphite not a mineral?
By definition, a mineral must form by natural processes. So anything man-made, even if it is chemically an structurally identical to a mineral, is not a mineral. However, natural diamond is formed from graphite as well.
What is the main mineral marble is made up of?
Marble is primarily composed of the mineral calcite.
What is a graphene filter?
Graphene is a sheet of Carbon atoms, or one layer of Graphite ("lead" in a pencil). A graphene filter is a filter made of graphene.
What native mineral is the best conductor of electricity?
Until recently, diamond would have been the answer, but graphene films have even higher conductivity. But graphene would not (yet) be considered a native mineral. [Most probably]
What are the properties of graphene?
Graphene is pretty amazing. An adequate description of the properties is rather long. There is a link below to the properties section of an article on graphene.
how about Graphene Sheets?
Graphene is an atomic-scale honeycomb lattice made of carbon atoms. It is the world's first 2D material and is one million times smaller than the diameter of a single human hair
How does graphene form?
Graphene is formed by peeling extremely thin layers of graphite off of a larger piece, in the original paper published on graphene it was done using tape.
What is graphene?
Graphene is a very thin layer of graphite. It is so thin, it is so close to being invisible!
How does the molecular structure of graphene differ from the other allotropes of carbon diamond and graphite?
The molecular structure of graphene differ from the other allotropes of carbon diamond and graphite in that graphene consist of a single layer of atoms.
How strong is Graphene?
It would take an elephant, balanced on a pencil, to break through a sheet of graphene the thickness of Saran Wrap."
What is the hardness of graphene on the mohs scale?
graphene according to how much it can hold (calculator) and how dense it is.
Is graphene used in armor and reason out the answer?
no
Is graphene used in armor?
No, not yet.
Is graphene going to be put on the periodic table?
Yes Graphite is a MINERAL!!!!
