1. Unit 7 Review

2. Which of the following is not a physical property scientists use to identify an unknown mineral? Streak Color Boiling Point Luster

3. If you are told by your teacher that one of the physical properties of a mineral you have been given is that it is metallic, which physical properties would it be describing? Streak Luster Hardness Shape

4. Which of the following minerals can scratch Feldspar but be scratched by Topaz? Quartz Apatite Corundum Fluorite

5. If you take a piece of graphite and rub it across a plate to view its color in powder form, what physical property are you testing? Luster Hardness Color Streak

6. Which of the following is a physical property scientists use to identify an unknown mineral? Streak Melting Point Luster Hardness

7. How are minerals identified using Luster? Minerals are scratched against each other. They are rubbed against an unglazed tile. Using a balance scale and finding the mass. The way the light reflects off of a mineral.

8. Sarah was taking a walk with her friends. She looked down and saw two unknown minerals. When she dragged them across the sidewalk, she noticed that they produced the same color mark, but one scratched the other. What conclusion could Sarah draw? Their hardness and streak were the same. Their hardness is the same and their streak is different. Their streaks are the same, but their luster is different. Their hardness is different, but their streaks are the same.

9. Which of the following minerals can scratch Fluorite but be scratched by Feldspar? Quartz Apatite Corundum Fluorite
