Pegmatites are igneous rocks in which the individual minerals are very large. typically, the minerals are all light-colored quartz, feldspar and muscovite. if you were given a black and white photograph of a pegmatite in a quarry (where the rock has been blasted and broken), what physical properties could you use to identify those three minerals in this hypothetical photo? describe each mineral and the specific diagnostic properties. be specific.

To prevent the presence of air, noble gases are placed over highly reactive chemicals to act as inert "blanketing" gases. a chemical engineer places a mixture of noble gases consisting of 4.37 g of he, 13.36 g of ne, and 36.65 g of kr in a piston-cylinder assembly at stp. calculate the partial pressure in torr of kr.
