The softest mineral in the Mohs Hardness Scale is talc.
Talc is often used in baby powder and corn starch, among other things. Talc cleaves into thin sheets, and it is held together only by van de Waals bonds, which allows these sheets to slip past each other. This gives the mineral its softness and it is often valued as a high-temperature lubricant.

Explanation:
because it is a solid and an aqueous can not conduct electricity
Answer:
1.4 × 10^-4 M
Explanation:
The balanced redox reaction equation is shown below;
5Fe2+ + MnO4- + 8H+ --> 5Fe3+ +Mn2+ + 4H2O
Molar mass of FeSO4(NH4)2SO4*6H2O = 392 g/mol
Number of moles Fe^2+ in FeSO4(NH4)2SO4*6H2O = 3.47g/392g/mol = 8.85 × 10^-5 moles
Concentration of Fe^2+ = 8.85 × 10^-5 moles × 1000/200 = 4.425 × 10^-4 M
Let CA be concentration of Fe^2+ = 4.425 × 10^-4 M
Volume of Fe^2+ (VA)= 20.0 ml
Let the concentration of MnO4^- be CB (the unknown)
Volume of the MnO4^- (VB) = 12.6 ml
Let the number of moles of Fe^2+ be NA= 5 moles
Let the number of moles of MnO4^- be NB = 1 mole
From;
CAVA/CBVB = NA/NB
CAVANB = CBVBNA
CB= CAVANB/VBNA
CB= 4.425 × 10^-4 × 20 × 1/12.6 × 5
CB = 1.4 × 10^-4 M
