what are chemical properties of minerals
Answers
Properties that help geologists identify a mineral in a rock are: color, hardness, luster, crystal forms, density, and cleavage. Crystal form, cleavage, and hardness are determined primarily by the crystal structure at the atomic level. Color and density are determined primarily by the chemical composition.
Explanation:
Camical properties are any of the properties of matter that can be observed and measured only by performing a chemical change or chemical reaction. Chemical properties cannot be determined by touching or viewing a sample; the structure of the sample must be altered for the chemical properties to become apparent.example
1)Reactivity with other chemicals
2(Toxicity
3)Coordination number
4)Flammability
5)Enthalpy of formation
6(Heat of combustion
7)Oxidation states
