Mighty fine question indeed! What determines the value of a mineral is the size, shape and the weight! Good luck!

Does the density of a mineral depend on the size of the mineral sample?

No, to tell how hard a mineral is you either have to test it or determine what mineral it is. Testing uses materials of known hardness such as a fingernail, or copper penny, or scratch plate, if the mineral is scratched by whatever you use to test it is softer. Hardness however is not based on size it will be the same for any sample of the same rock no matter what the size because its based on atomic arrangement and bond type.


How many electrons are in 4.171023 atoms?

1) You can't have 4.171023 atoms -- you can't even have 4.1 atoms. Atoms are, by definition, indivisible. Thus, you can have 4 atoms or 5 atoms, but no number in between a positive whole number. 2) Even if you chose a whole number to ask about, such as 4.17 x 10^23 the number of electrons in that many atoms would depend on which type of atoms you are asking about. Most atoms in our Universe have only one electron, but some have over a hundred atoms.


What is the definition of a triangular flower arrangement?

A triangular arrangement is one that has the focal points in a triangle, hence the name. When you put a focal flower at the top of the arrangement, then arrange the same type of flower to the left and right, it becomes a triangular piece.For instance, using carnations, place the first carnation at the center of the arrangement, then place others to the left and right low in the container. Filling in the triangle does not necessarily have to be done using greenery, but does include secondary colors. Since it is generally accepted that the primary color is the focal point, it is best to use secondary colors that compliment the focal color.The triangular arrangement is either single faced or in the round. The primary thing to remember if you are working in the round is to keep your primary color lower in the arrangement to make the triangle shape within the arrangement.Note in the link below the blue and yellow arrangement and the glitter rose arrangement. Even though there are flowers above the primary arrangement, the triangle shape is still well defined by the blue flowers in the first arrangement, and the roses in the second arrangement.

Why do minerals differ in hardness?

The hardness of a mineral results from the type of chemical bond that exists in that mineral. Bonds vary according to the different elements involved, as well as the particular way in which those elements are combined. It's complicated.
