Correlation Between Quartz And Quartz Size

    C.grains of sand-sized particles.     D.gypsum.   Answer Key: A   Feedback: The correct answer is A. silica.     Question 19 of 33 3.03/ 3.0303 Points Which of the following is a diagnostic feature of Specimen #16?

In site one there was a high proportion of very unspherical rocks. According to this the hypothesis is right, in site two there is a lot more smother rocks medium sized and in site 3 there are very small pebbles which are very smooth and spherical. The pebbles get smoother and rounder while it goes downstream. Due to us only taking about 10 rocks our result may have been not right as there were some pebbles which were largely over sized. Most of the other load is dissolved by solution such as limestone and chalk

Mole of chlorine : 1.0217g - .221g - .3946 g = .4061 g of chlorine

Rose quartz is a mineral composed of oxygen and silicon with the chemical formula SiO2. It is a 7 on Mohs scale of hardness just like any other quartz.Its central gravity is 2.63-2.65. Rose quartz transparency is translucent to transparent. Rose quartz has a vitreous luster and its mineral class is quartz.It is the most abundant mineral found on earth mostly found in the earth's crust.(https://www.crystalvaults.com/crystal-encyclopedia/rose-quartz)

10. The minerals shown in Figure 1.12 (p. 7 lab book) are fluorite and topaz that have been tested for hardness. Use the Mohs scale in Figure 1.11 (p. 7 lab book) to identify which is fluorite and which is topaz.

Next, we can see that the rock displays a subtle porphyritic texture with plagioclase comprising the phenocrysts. The overall texture of the surrounding groundmass is granoblastic equigranular. Under thin section we also see a weakly defined foliation evidenced in the preferential alignment of actinolite grains and to a lesser extent chlorite grains. Undulose extinction is also observed in quartz indicating the rock was subject to deformation. The normalized quartz, alkali-feldspar, and plagioclase (QAP) values of this rock indicate that it is classified as a grano-diorite according to the IUGS QAPF classification system which is consistent with the hand sample interpretation.

This experiment was performed to observe differences in density based on the chemical makeup of an object. Pennies minted before 1982, pennies minted after 1982, and an unknown metal sample was tested to see if there were any differences in their densities. Ten pennies from each category and the metal sample were weighed using a scale to find mass and the displacement method was used to find their volumes. The masses and volumes were then used to calculate the densities of the pennies (D=m/v). The density of the pre-1982 pennies were 8.6 g/mL while the post-1982 pennies were 6.9 g/mL. The metal sample’s density was 1.7 g/mL. Following the experiment we were given the real densities of each item to calculate the percent error with the formula

Two major laboratories have given two stones that differ markedly in overall quality the same grade. Explain

The specimen ends were not thick or had moving wedge grips to keep it secure in the holders of the servo-hydraulic load frame. The movement of the specimen in the machine causes some of the data to be an inaccuracy. Also, the transverse strain causes issues with the strain gages that are called transverse sensitivity. The transverse sensitivity affects the accuracy of the data that is being collected for the transverse strain more than the longitudinal strain. This is greatly seen in the percent difference in the strain values such as in one case the Longitudinal strain was .4% while the transverse strain was 30%. Another issue with the strain gages was that if the strain gages weren’t properly placed on the specimen the data accuracy would

With volume and mass determined, the density formula (d = m/V) was used to determine the densities of each rock and recorded in g/ml.

In 1994, the APVA’s (Association for the preservation Virginia) goal was to find the earliest secured town that was discovered by Virginia Company of London back in 1607. A team of archaeologists are still at the site uncovering more and more artifacts from the cellar that was noted to be filled with trash in 1610 because of a big cleanup that was ordered by the new governor Lord De La Warre at the time.

Obviously the main objective is to find gold. Another way they are similar they are destructive for hard rock mining they would blow up mountains for placer mining they would put mercury in the water to help find gold destroying many useful resources.

Minerals are naturally occurring, inorganic, solid, crystalline substances which have a fixed structure and chemical composition. Minerals are an important part of Geology, especially when studying Crystal and mineral growth. Understanding how crystals grow and the difference between slow and fast cooling rates is also important in Geology. Knowing the difference between cooling rates is important because cooling rate changes the texture of rocks and minerals. The purpose for the Crystal Growth experiment is to identify which Solubility and temperature produces larger crystals, and to simulate natural crystal growth. We will achieve the results we desire by conducting the experiment thoroughly and correctly, as well as correctly

Water saturation is the key parameter in the reservoir engineering calculations. Geology of the region and the various rock properties determine the water saturation parameters. The water saturation value used here is the average of all water saturation values given in the data. From the data the average of water saturation values at places amounts to 45.25% ~ 0.45. Thus the S_w value chosen for this simulation is
