Explanation / Answer

ANSWER:

1) The non-metallic mineral with a hardness of 4 and perfect octahedral cleavage is fluorite

2) Bauxite

3) Sanidine

4) Albite - Na-feldspar

orthoclase - K-feldspar

anorthite - Ca-feldspar

plagioclase - feldspar with a mixture of Na and Ca cations

5) Given,A specimen of haematite was found to weigh 780g and displaced 0.15 litres of water.

haematite = 780g

Water = 0.15 L = 150 Millilitres

S.G.= 780/150 = 5.2

6) The sharing of electrons is known as covalent bonding

7) Augite - pyroxene

Hornblende- amphibole

Microcline - Feldspar

Forsterite - olivine
