2
8-3.5 Summarize the importance of minerals, ores, and fossil fuels as Earth resources on the basis on their physical and chemical properties.
3
Key Vocabulary: Physical properties, chemical properties, minerals, ores, and fossil fuels.
4
III.Big Ideas: Earth resources (minerals, ores, and fossil fuels) have properties that make them important and useful. Properties that determine the usefulness of an ore or mineral may be identified using a chart, diagram or dichotomous key.
5
Big ideas The two properties are physical (hardness, luster, color, texture, cleavage & fracture, and density) and chemical (ability to burn and the reactivity to acids). Minerals are natural, solid materials found on Earth that re the building blocks of rock; each has a certain chemical makeup and set of properties that determine their use and value.
6
Big ideas Ores are mineral that are mined because they contain useful metals or nonmetals. Fossil Fuels are natural fuels that come from the remains of living thing: fuels give off energy when they are burned.
7
Essential Questions: 1.Why are minerals important resources? 2.Why is an ore considered important? 3.Why are fossil fuels considered important? 4.How would you compare and contrast a mineral, an ore, and a fossil fuel? 5.What properties would make an Earth resource important?
8
The two types of properties are: · Physical properties; for example, hardness, luster, color, texture, the way a mineral splits, or density · Chemical properties; for example, the ability to burn, the reactivity to acids
9
Three common Earth resources that have importance based on their properties are:
10
Minerals · Natural, solid materials found on Earth that are the building blocks of rock; each has a certain chemical makeup and set of properties that determine their use and value.
14
Ores · Minerals that are mined because they contain useful metals or nonmetals.
15
Ores examples
16
Fossil fuels · Natural fuels that come from the remains of living things; fuels give off energy when they are burned.
