Scratch Test

On Tuesday, we used several different tools to perform the scratch test on some minerals. The scratch test was used to determine each mineral's hardness. We used a paper clip, a penny, and our fingernails to test our minerals.
We discovered that Quartz was our hardest mineral and Gypsum was our softest.
