Why can't a snake move on a smooth surface?
A snake can move on a smooth surface. However, just like most other animals, it does require friction to exist between the surface and its body to move efficiently. A human would have difficulty walking on ice!

Does a rough surface reflect light in many directions?
Highly polished, shiny surfaces reflect light the best as they are REFLECTive. White or bright surfaces also reflect light well. Dull, Matt surfaces are the worst reflecters of light
When you describe a metal surface as smooth what property are you describing?
coefficient of friction
Is a common mineral that breaks along smooth and flat edges quarts or mica?
That would be mica...and it's spelled "quartz"
How would you test a mineral to find out what it is?
Begin by taking a look at the mineral's color, Examine the mineral and take note of its surface features,Get out the materials needed for the hardness test (see Things You'll need), The number is the hardness, followed by the characteristics of a mineral of that hardness and an example, Next find out your mineral's luster,Now for the streak test, You can also identify a mineral by the way it breaks. If it breaks along a smooth, flat surface (such as mica), it has cleavage. If your mineral breaks along rough, jagged surfaces, it has fracture. Thats all you need to do.

Which crystal has smooth surface which has a geometric shape?
Mineral
How a mineral breaks apart when a tool such as a hammer is used to break it . A mineral that exhibit this will break into smooth pieces?
jhgj
To what are you referring when you address the cleavage of a mineral?
the mineral's tendency to split along a smooth surface
When a mineral breaks with rough edges what is that called?
When a mineral breaks with rough edges, it is called a "fracture." This is different from cleavage, which is when a mineral breaks along smooth, flat planes. Fracture can be described as conchoidal (shell-like), uneven, or fibrous.
What is breaking of a mineral along smooth definite surface?
Cleavage
A mineral that splits into smooth flat pieces demonstrates this property.?
cleavage
Mica has what because it breaks along a smooth flat surface?
cleavage
Why does the mineral mica breaks in smooth flat surfaces?
... because calcite has a regular arrangement of atoms.
Is it true or false that fracture is the tendency of a mineral to break along a smooth flat surface?
False. Fracture refers to how a mineral breaks when it does not break along a cleavage plane. Minerals can break along smooth flat surfaces (cleavage) or irregular surfaces (fracture) depending on their internal structure and arrangement of atoms.
