What is the effect when mica is heating?
When mica is heated, it can withstand very high temperatures without deforming or conducting electricity. This property makes it useful in applications where thermal insulation and electrical insulation are important. Additionally, heating mica can cause it to expand slightly due to thermal expansion.
What is a mineral of basal cleavage?
Mica is a mineral with basal cleavage. The atomic structure of mica allows it to cleave easily parallel to its basal plane, resulting in thin, sheet-like layers. This property makes mica useful in various applications such as in electronics and cosmetics.
When stressed mica breaks into thin sheets. This describes mica's .?
When stressed, mica breaks into thin sheets, which describes its cleavage. Cleavage refers to the tendency of a mineral to break along specific planes of weakness in its crystal structure. In the case of mica, this property allows it to be split into thin, flexible sheets, making it useful in various applications like insulation and electronics.
Does mica fracture?
Mica has a perfect basal cleavage, which means it breaks along flat planes into thin sheets. This fracture pattern allows mica to be easily split into thin layers, making it useful for various applications like insulation and cosmetics.
What is a specific resistance of a mica?
mica has the specific gravity of 2.88
What unusual charateristic does mica have and how is it useful?
Mica is a soft mineral (Mohs hardness of 2-2.5), and has perfect cleavage in one direction. It also has a shiny luster, which makes it useful in paint and makeup manufacture. It is used as an insulator in electrical equipment and because of its resistance to heat it has been used as a replacement for glass in furnace and stove windows. The low hardness makes it useful as a very mild abrasive, and it is used in some toothpastes.
What is a silicate mineral known for its perfect cleavlage into thin sheets?
The silicate mineral known for its perfect cleavage into thin sheets is mica. Mica is a family of minerals that exhibit excellent cleavage in one direction, allowing them to be easily split into thin, flexible sheets. This characteristic makes mica useful in various industrial applications, including as electrical insulators and in cosmetics.

How are the minerals biotite mica and the Muscovite mica different?
Biotite mica contains iron and/or magnesium, but muscovite mica does not.
What element is present in biotite mica that is not present in muscovite mica?
Iron is present in biotite mica but not in muscovite mica.
What mineral is often used as an insulator is electrical equipment?
Mica. Mica Mica
