What is The structure of the micas?
Micas are monoclinic.
Muscovite mica group list?
Your question is unclear. Muscovite is not a group name, but there are a number of polytypes, as listed by Fleischer's Glossary, 2008: -2M1, -1M, , and -2M2. The micas are divided into three main subgroups: true micas, brittle micas, and interlayer-deficient micas. These total about 44 species. There are also six incompletely investigated micas that are now considered to be series.
What does the tendency of micas to produce thin cleavage flakes suggest about its crystal structure?
the arrangement of the atoms in mica
What minerals are the easiest to recognize in a rock?
The easiest minerals to recognize in a rock most times is Quartz, Feldsper and Micas.
Does the rock mica have a chemical composition?
Mica is a class of minerlas, not a rock. Different micas have different chemical compositions.
What is The structure of the micas?
Micas are monoclinic.
How tall is Cynthia Micas?
Cynthia Micas is 165 cm.
When was Cynthia Micas born?
Cynthia Micas was born on February 2, 1990, in Berlin, Germany.

What is the crystalline structure of phyllite?
phyllite is a type of metasedimentary rock. The parent rock likely contained clays and/or micas, which have metamorphosed into micas and aligned due to pressure. This shiny surface is produced by the alignment of the minerals.
What is the relationship between the way in which silicon-oxygen tetrahedral bond in micas and the characteristic cleavage of micas?
The silicon-oxygen tetrahedral bonds in micas create a sheet structure with weak bonds between the sheets. This allows micas to cleave along these weak planes, resulting in their characteristic perfect basal cleavage.
What is the relationship between the way in which silicon-oxygen tetrahedra bond in micas and the characteristic cleavage of micas?
The silicon-oxygen tetrahedra in micas are arranged in sheets, allowing for weak bonds between the layers. This layered structure is what gives micas their characteristic cleavage properties, as the weak bonds between the layers allow the mineral to easily split along parallel planes.
What is the geologic mean of platy mineral?
Platy minerals are micas(muscovite and biotite) and chlorite
What elements that make up marble?
Marble primarily consists of the mineral calcite, which is a crystalline form of calcium carbonate. It may also contain other minerals like dolomite, quartz, or micas. The characteristic veining and colors in marble come from impurities present during its formation.
What group is mica in?
Mica is a group of sheet silicate minerals (e.x of micas : Biotite, muscovite)
What minerals make up shale?
Minerals could include clays, feldspars, quartz, micas, and pyrite
What group of rock forming minerals are used as dielectrics in heating elements etc?
The micas are used as dielectrics.
