— "Values ranging from 21.3 to 21.5 gm/cm 3 at 20 °C have been reported for the density of annealed platinum; the best value being about 21.45 gm/cm 3 at 20 °C." 21.46 g/cm 3 — Rose, T. Kirke. The Precious Metals, Comprising Gold, Silver and Platinum .
Given the local stone's density (which is limestone) stands at 2284 kg/m³, the d n50 is calculated to be 22cm. It may be observed that the stones in the sample appear much larger to the eye. This visual misperception can be attributed to a few particularly large stones within the sample, which distort the overall impression.
An overview of ranges of mass. To help compare different orders of magnitude, the following lists describe various mass levels between 10 −67 kg and 10 52 kg. The least massive thing listed here is a graviton, and the most massive thing is the observable universe.
This article gives a list of conversion factors for several physical quantities.A number of different units (some only of historical interest) are shown and expressed in terms of the corresponding SI unit.
Staurolite is a reddish brown to black, mostly opaque, nesosilicate mineral with a white streak. It crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system, has a Mohs hardness of 7 to 7.5 and the chemical formula: Fe 2+ 2 Al 9 O 6 (SiO 4) 4 (O,OH) 2.
Jet is around 75% carbon and 12% oxygen with sulfur and hydrogen making up most of the balance. [7] Other elements are found at trace level and the exact ratios varying with the source; for example, Spanish jet contains more sulfur than Whitby jet. [7] Jet has a Mohs hardness ranging between 2.5 and 4 and a specific gravity of 1.30 to 1.34
Pectolite is a white to gray mineral, Na Ca 2 Si 3 O 8 (OH), a sodium calcium hydroxide inosilicate.It crystallizes in the triclinic system typically occurring in radiated or fibrous crystalline masses.
Sample of lamproite [1]. Lamproite is an ultrapotassic mantle-derived volcanic or subvolcanic rock.It has low CaO, Al 2 O 3, Na 2 O, high K 2 O/Al 2 O 3, a relatively high MgO content and extreme enrichment in incompatible elements.
