Observation
and
Analysis:
Inthis
lab,
you
looked
at
a
number
of
different
physical
properties
for
each
mineral
in
order
to
identify
the
sample
on
display.
Why
was
it
necessary
to
consider
more
than
just
one
or
two
physical
properties
in
order
to
identify
each
mineral?
What
properties
were
most
beneficial
toyou
in
identifying
the
minerals
whose
names
were
not
provided?
Why?
