Question

Which phrase does not describe a mineral?A.organic soil B.specific chemical composition C.naturally occurring D.Crystal structure

Answer 1

Answer:

Organic soil does not describe a mineral

Explanation:

• Minerals can be defined as the solid substances that are found on the earth and might be composed up of either elements or the combination of elements.

• Some of the examples of minerals that are commonly found on earth are iron, copper, gold, silver, etc.

• The properties that a mineral should possess are that they should be solid, inorganic, naturally occurring and must have definite chemical composition and ordered internal structure.

• So, we can say that the organic soil can't be considered as mineral.
