You have been given a clear, well formed mineral crystal to identify. Suppose the crystal volume is 25 cm³ , and
the mass is 71.0 g. Which of the following is the most likely composition of this sample?
Quartz: density = 2650 kg/m³
Dolomite: density = 2840 kg/m³
Halite: density = 2170 kg/m³
Calcite: density = 2710 kg/m³
Aragonite: density = 2930 kg/m³

Assume you are a mineralogist that discovered a new type of mineral. To inform not
only the academe but also the common people, you are then tasked to make an
infographic that will state its characteristics, properties, and significance (whether
economic, health and scientific). Present these important data through a concept
map.
