702. • Additional Properties • Using eye goggles, hit each mineral with a hammer and examine if the mineral exhibits cleavage. – Cleavage: Smooth flat edges when hit.

703. • Based on all of your observations and data collection. Use your sheet to determine the name of the mineral based on these properties.

706. • You will find the quiz on the back of your physical properties of minerals sheet.
