I have a sample of galena. It appears there may be some gold in it. It is a piece of raw ore so I took it to a metallurgist and

that's what he said. Is that possible?

Yes it is possible

Explanation:

Galena and gold can become encrusted together. They can form together in the same geologic setting.

  • Gold usually occurs freely in nature uncombined with other atoms.
  • Galena is the largest ore of lead.
  • Both minerals can become twinned under appropriate geologic conditions.
  • They are usually seen in pegmatitic intrusions in a rock body as product of late stage melt crystallization.

Why do polar and non polar molecules have different properties?
Margaret [11]
The greater the electronegativity difference, the more ionic the bond is. Bonds that are partly ionic are called polar covalent bonds. Nonpolar covalent bonds, with equal sharing of the bond electrons, arise when the electronegativities of the two atoms are equal.
