1. TEXTURE OF ROCK.. THE SIZE, SHAPE AND POSITIONS OF THE PIECES INSIDE A ROCK.. 3 TYPES= FINE GRAINED, COARSE GRAINED AND MEDIUM GRAINED ROCKS ARE MADE OF MINERALS, BUT MINERALS ARE NOT MADE OF ROCKS.

2. FINE GRAINED TEXTURE  WE DON’T EASILY SEE WHAT IS INSIDE THE ROCK..  COOLS FAST, CRYSTALS DON’T LAST  EXAMPLE=TOMATO SOUP

3. MEDIUM GRAINED TEXTURE  WE SEE SOME OF THE PIECES INSIDE THE ROCK BUT NOT ALL OF THEM  MEDIUM=CRYSTALS SOME  EXAMPLE=OREO COOKIE

4. COARSE GRAINED TEXTURE  WE CAN EASILY SEE THE PIECES INSIDE THE ROCK  COOLS SLOW=CRYSTALS SURE CAN GROW  EXAMPLE=A SALAD OR “THE WORKS” PIZZA

5. A ROCK’S COMPOSITION  THE PERCENTAGE OF THE MINERALS THAT MAKE UP A ROCK..  EXAMPLE= GRANITE IS MADE UP OF..  10% MICA  55% FELDSPAR  35% QUARTZ

11. A MINERAL IS…  NATURALLY FORMED-NOT MADE BY YOU OR ME  ROCKS ARE MADE OF MINERALS, MINERALS ARE NOT MADE OF ROCKS.

12. A MINERAL IS…  INORGANIC OR NON-LIVING

13. A MINERAL IS…  SOLID, NOT LIQUID OR GAS

14. A MINERAL HAS…  A REPEATING CRYSTALLINE STRUCTURE…THIS MEANS THE ARRANGEMENT OF ATOMS ON THE INSIDE GIVES THE MINERAL ITS SHAPE  ON THE OUTSIDE  CHECK OUT MR. L’S VISUAL EXAMPLES OF THIS NOW!!!

15. Identifying Minerals  Each mineral has its own specific properties used to identify it.

16. Color  The same mineral can come in a variety of colors Ex. quartz  Impurities & other factors can change mineral appearance  Color is not the best way to identify minerals

17. Luster  Describes how a surface reflects light Ex. shiny/dull  Metallic- minerals containing metals are often shiny  Nonmetallic Vitreous- glassy, brilliant Silky-fibrous Resinous-plastic Waxy- greasy, oily Pearly- creamy Earthy- rough, dull

18. Streak  Color of mineral in powder form  Observed by rubbing a mineral against a piece of unglazed porcelain called a streak plate  Streak doesn’t vary like color & is often different than a mineral’s color  More reliable than color

19. Cleavage and Fracture  Way a mineral breaks apart determined by arrangement of atoms  Cleavage- breaks along flat surfaces  Fracture- mineral breaks in an irregular way

20. Hardness  Minerals resistance to being scratched  Ranks minerals from softest to hardest  Talc- softest known mineral  Diamond- hardest known mineral

21. Hardness

22. Density  Mass in a given space/ mass per unit volume  D= M/V  Density remains same regardless of sample size  Mass determined using balance  Volume determined using water displacement method  Comparisons can be made by hefting  Specific Gravity- ratio of an object’s density to the density of water

23. Special Properties  Fluorescence- minerals glow under ultraviolet light, ex. fluorite & calcite  Magnetism- ex. Magnetite  Radioactive- ex. contain radium or uranium  Effervescence- mineral fizzes (releases carbon dioxide) when in contact with hydrochloric acid=chemical reaction/double image.. Calcite  Halite=salty taste

24. Pictures of special properties…

25. ROCK VOCAB/FOOD COMPARISON LAB WORK  COMPARE THE ROCK TERM WITH THE FOOOD ITEMS ON EACH TRAY. PLEASE DO NOT MOVE THE FOOD ITEMS OFF THE TRAY.  EXPLAIN AND ADD A DRAWING OF HOW THE SPECIFIC FOOD ITEM ON THE TRAY MATCHES WITH THE TERM AND DEFINTION IT IS NEXT TO.  GROUP DISCUSSION IS A PLUS!!!!
