Some properties to differentiate between the minerals include:
Ductility
Malleability
Luster
Particle Size
Ability to react with chemicals
etc....
Answer:
a)Atomic number
Explanation:
Element symbol signifies the element. For eg, Na is sodium. Mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons of an atom of an element. Atomic mass is the molar mass of the given element. Finally, atomic number is unique to each element because it signifies the number of protons of that element. EACH ELEMENT has their UNIQUE number of protons. For eg, atomic number of hydrogen is 1 because it has 1 proton, NO OTHER ELEMENT HAS ATOMIC NUMBER 1 because NO OTHER ELEMENT HAS 1 proton.
Answer:
Particles would move more freely, while still staying close together depending on the shape of the liquid
Explanation:
Melting is the process of going from a solid to a liquid due to the increase in heat/energy. This increase in heat/energy increases the speed at which the atoms within the object moves. Lets say we had an ice cube. While it is a cube, the particles inside the cube are slow and compact, staying close together.
When enough energy is gained, this makes the particles begin to move faster, gaining heat and energy which results in the ice cube melting and moving more freely than normal.
It is basic. since it is a salt .
