No, chalcopyrite is not magnetic. It is a copper iron sulfide mineral that does not exhibit magnetic properties.
The chemical formula of chalcopyrite is CuFeS2.
Chalcopyrite does not have cleavage. It typically exhibits a conchoidal fracture instead of cleavage planes.
Chalcopyrite itself is not considered toxic to humans. However, its dust or fumes produced during the mining, crushing, or processing of chalcopyrite can be harmful to human health if inhaled. It's important to follow safety guidelines and use protective equipment when dealing with chalcopyrite-related activities.

To calculate the mass of iron in chalcopyrite (CuFeS2), we need to find the atomic mass of iron and the chemical formula weight of chalcopyrite. Iron has an atomic mass of 55.85 g/mol, and the formula weight of chalcopyrite is 183.54 g/mol. The mass percentage of iron in chalcopyrite is calculated by (55.85 / 183.54) x 100 = 30.45%. Therefore, the mass of iron in 86.6 grams of chalcopyrite can be found by multiplying 86.6 g by 0.3045 to get 26.34 grams of iron.
some of our samples of pyrite are paramagnetic
no chalcopyrite does not have transparency
Chalcopyrite is in the sulfide mineral group.
The chemical formula of chalcopyrite is CuFeS2.
according to Geology.com the specific gravity of Chalcopyrite's is 4.1 -4.3.
The percentage of sulfur in chalcopyrite is 34.94.
Chalcopyrite, the mineral, is opaque with a metallic luster, and therefore does not exhibit transparency.
Chalcopyrite has a hardness of 3.5 to 4 on the Mohs scale.
Chalcopyrite does not have cleavage. It typically exhibits a conchoidal fracture instead of cleavage planes.
the streak color is Dark Green
No. It is a sulfide.
