Answer is: a. harder.
Friedrich Mohs devised a scale that tested mineral hardness, which means the resistance of a mineral to being scratched. This scale (from 1 to 10) is known as the Mohs Hardness Test.
For examples:
fingernail (hardness = 2.5).
copper penny (hardness = 3)
glass plate or steel knife (hardness = 5.5)
steel file (hardness = 6.5).
According to this scale hardness of the mineral is between 5.5 and 6.5.

Tone is the author's attitude towards the topic. We can identify it by looking at the setting, characters, details, and word choices. By doing so, it will help us find meaning in the story or passage and help us feel more connected to the writing.
When a stable atom gains or loses its electrons then that’s when it becomes the ion.
The partial pressure of water in 1 atm is 0.24 atm
Answer:
0.55 atm
Explanation:
According to Dalton's law of partial pressures,
The total pressure is the summation of the partial pressures of individual gases in a sample of non-reactive gases.
Since Neon and Argon are noble gases, they do not react with each other. So we can apply Dalton's partial pressure law.
P total = P Ar + P Ne
2.39 atm = P Ar+ 1.84 atm
P Ar = 2.39 atm - 1.84 atm
= 0.55 atm
