Answer:

A) cleavage

Explanation:

    The Muscovite was named after the popular name of the mineral: "Glass of Muscovy" as it was used as glass in ancient Russia (Muscovy). Muscovite is one of the minerals that has better transparency, better dielectric strength and greater cleavage perfection, and can easily be separated into tiny reeds. It is a petent mineral to the group of Micas (phyllic silicates) with ideal molecular formula: KAl2 (Si3Al) O10 (OH, F) 2. Mica, from Latin micare (shine), is the name given to a group of silicates, consisting basically of aluminum, sodium or potassium and often iron and magnesium crystallized in the monoclinic system with one obvious feature: a stacking of very thin leaves, that can be highlighted easily.

    Using the macroscopic method of analysis to differentiate Muscovite from Biotite, transparency will soon be noted, but due to the impurities present in it, it may also rarely be found with a pink or brown color, and for this distinction Muscovita is called white mica. while Biotite is called black mica. Micas are also known to be very thin and any weight changes on them can cause cracking and even breaking.

When the moon is furthest from the sun, the light coming from the sun cannot reach the moon as it is blocked by earth thus moon looks dark from earth i.e. lunar eclipse.

Why did Ohio and Michigan have such conflict over their state boundaries
yawa3891 [41]

The so-called “Toledo War” had its roots in the shortcomings of 18th century geography. In 1787, Congress drafted the Northwest Ordinance, which stipulated that 260,000 square miles of territory surrounding the Great Lakes would eventually be carved into a handful of new states. Specifically, the law decreed that the border between Ohio and Michigan was to run on “an east and west line drawn through the southerly bend or extreme of Lake Michigan” until it intersected with Lake Erie. There was just one problem: the best available maps depicted Lake Michigan’s southern tip as being several miles north of its true location. As a result, the original border placed the mouth of the Maumee River and the future city of Toledo in northern Ohio rather than in southern Michigan.
