I have 15 question.... and I failed my first try to pass the test
the first question's answer choices have nothing to do with the question, AFAICT
???
QUESTION~1~Which describes the mineral's luster? hexagonal, orthogonal, cubic, rhombic None of those words are used to describe the mineral's luster. AFAICT: as far as I can tell
awe :( :( :( :( :( :( :(
no, that would be "aw" — "awe" is a different word entirely... terms to describe mineral luster include, but are not limited to: adamantine, dull, greasy, metallic, pearly, resinous, silky, submetallic, vitreous, waxy
LOL thx for the correction! :P
OK...so I don't get number 1 :(
@whpalmer4 ?
It isn't a matter of "getting it" — those answer choices don't apply to that question. Someone has made a mistake, I don't know if it is you, or the test writer, or whoever else might have had a hand in it.
I just told you that we have no basis for talking about question 1, at least not if you have to select an answer from the choices given. I did give you a list of terms which are used for luster. However, there's a picture attached to that question. Are you certain that "luster" is the word that appears before the question mark?
yes. I copied and pasted it...I didn't write it in
..ok nvm about that ill talk to my teacher... what about questions 2~4?
QUESTION~2~Which determines the chemical properties of minerals? A. luster B. cleavage C. type of atoms D. crystal shape Okay, does it make sense that the appearance of a mineral could determine its chemical properties?
no? I donw know what that means
Let me ask you a question: how are you supposed to learn this material? Do you have a textbook?
well....not really.... I don't have a science book like school does but I have a work book w some reading material
That doesn't exactly answer my question: I'm sure you are not expected to magically know the answers to these questions, and that somehow, the knowledge is supposed to be transferred to you. It seems like it hasn't happened, and I'm wondering if there's a chapter you need to read, or a lecture to watch, or what.
i give up on school...nvm bye
flutter all
i need help with that to please help

number one is A and whpalmer4 really!?!?
@aubreebethune No, number one is not A if the question is Which describes the mineral's luster? and A is hexagonal hexagonal in the context of a mineral means that the crystalline arrangement is hexagonal. As I said, the list of answer choices provided for question one is obviously not the correct set, as all of the choices describe crystal patterns, and have nothing to do with luster, which is a gentle sheen or soft glow. If you are trying to take me to task for expecting the OP to actually do some work, rather than have the answers fed to her, I refer you to the OpenStudy Code of Conduct at http://openstudy.com/code-of-conduct, which prominently states: "Give Help, Not Answers"
