Can a window pane be considered a mineral?

Chemistry

Answer:

Explanation:

The glass (which does not crystallize even though it is accepted) of a window is NOT a mineral, since it is neither a substance of natural origin (although it is manufactured from natural components) nor does it have a defined crystalline structure, that is, the atoms they are not arranged in an orderly and regular way along axes and planes forming flat faces that keep a symmetry.

Remember that a mineral is defined as a solid, inorganic, homogeneous substance, of natural origin, with a crystalline structure and a determined and well-defined chemical composition within narrow margins and that has regular and characteristic physical properties.

Explanation: No, glass is not a mineral. ... Definable chemical composition: SiO2 *Actually, most industrially-produced glass is not pure silica, but having impurities is still a definable chemical composition so this part of the definition is ok. Orderly arrangement of atoms in a lattice: NO.

What is the name for this molecule? 3-heptyne 3-heptene 3-hexyne 3-hexene
sweet-ann [11.9K]

The iupac name of the compound will be hex-3-yne or 3-hexyne. By marking number of carbon in the given compound, it was found that triple bond comes at third position and there are total 6 carbon in the compound. So it will have Hex as a prefix and as it contains triple bond so it will have yne as a suffix and as the triple bond is at third position, so it will be hex-3-yne or 3-hexyne.

Three beakers contain clear, colorless liquids. one beaker contains pure water, another contains salt water, and another contain
tiny-mole [99]
First, we'll identify the beaker containing pure water as follows:
We'll take equal masses from each of the three beakers and measure the mass of each.
We'll then identify the density of each by using the rule : density =mass/volume
Pure water will be the liquid having density equal to 1 gm/cm^3

Then, we'll differentiate between the salt and sugar solution by measuring the conductivity of each solution. Salt solution is a good conductor while solution of sugar is a bad conductor.

Critical Thinking Challenge: A student has a part time
mina [271]

Answer:

6⅔ shifts

Explanation:

From the question given:

A shift = 4 hours

Pay = $8.25 per hour

Next, we shall determine the number of hours that will result in a pay of $220. This can be obtained as follow:

$8.25 = 1 hour

Therefore,

$220 = $220 × 1 hour / $8.25

$220 = 220/8.25 hours.

$220 = 80/3 hours

$220 = 26⅔ hours

Therefore, it will take 26⅔ hours to receive a pay of $220.

Finally, we shall determine the number of shifts in 26⅔ hours. This can be obtained as follow:

4 hours = 1 shift

Therefore,

26⅔ hours = 26⅔ ÷ 4

26⅔ hours = 80/3 × 1/4

26⅔ hours = 80/12

26⅔ hours = 20/3

26⅔ hours = 6⅔ shifts

Therefore, she will work 6⅔ shifts in order to receive a pay of $220
