A mineral is a naturally occurring inorganic element or compound having an orderly internal structure and characteristic chemical composition, crystal form, and physical properties. ... A rock is an aggregate of one or more minerals, or a body of undifferentiated mineral matter.
I think it’s A but I’m not sure. Sorry if I’m wrong
Answer:
a. In a mineral the constituent atoms are bonded in a regular, repetitive, internal structure; a rock is a lithified or consolidated aggregate of different mineral grains.
Explanation:
In the internal structure of a mineral the atoms are arranged in an orderly manner, forming shapes that are repeated throughout the structure.
Rocks are a mixture of other materials consolidated in one, which include minerals.
So the minerals have a defined internal structure with atoms in a regular and repeated configuration, while a rock, being a consolidated aggregate, combination of other materials including minerals, does not have a structure that defined
The enthalpy energy in condensation process is negative because it releases energy
The entropy in will also decreases .
Temperature affected this change because it will now create free energy if added with this result this is the condestion process
