Minerals are identified according to their properties. One of these properties is their breaking tendency: <em>cleavage</em><em> or </em><em>fracture</em>.<em> Cleavage: Calcite, mica, muscovita, pyroxene. Fracture: Quartz, Asbestos, Limestone.</em>

<u><em>Note</em></u><em>: Since I do not know which your 10 minerals are, I will provide examples of each type according to the breaking tendency.</em>

Many properties of minerals are used to identify them, such as <em>color, density, hardness,</em> among others. In this case, we are talking about their <u>breaking tendency.</u>

<h3 /><h3>How do minerals break?</h3><h3 />
  • Minerals can cleave or fracture.

  • A type of mineral breaks always in the same, and this is why the breaking tendency is useful to identify them.  
<h3 />

<u>- Cleavage</u>

  • The mineral breaks in flat smooth planes.

  • Cleavage direction and smoothness of surfaces are significant when identifying.

<u>- Fracture</u>

  • The mineral break in irregular planes.

  • In these minerals, there is no particular breaking direction.

<h2 /><h3>Examples</h3>

<u>- Cleavage</u>

  • Calcite
  • Mica
  • Muscovite
  • Pyroxene
  • Halite
  • Feldspar
  • Gypsum

<u>- Fracture</u>

  • Quartz
  • Asbestos
  • Limestone
  • Beryl
  • Chromite
  • Agate
  • Copper

What is the value of the expression when a equal 4B equal 3 + c equal 10​
mezya [45]

Answer:

The value of the expression is as follows:

a = 10; B = 2.5; c = 7

Explanation:

a = 4B = 3 + c = 10​

Step 1

split equation into parts, then we have

3 + c = 10

c = 10 - 3

c = 7 (the value of c is 7)

Step 2

Rewrite equation as a = 4B = 10, then split again

4B = 10

Then, B = 10➗ 4

B = 2.5 ( the value of B is 2.5)

Step 3

Take the last part of the equation

a = 10 (the value of a is 10)

Note the "equal sign =" put whatever is on the left hand side to be equal to the right hand side
