E N D
Rules • Three rounds • 10 questions per round • Pass answers to team to right for grading
Round 1 – Question 1 What is the term to describe a crystal that displays imperfectly developed crystal faces?
Round 1 – Question 2 Mineral symmetry is manifest by external symmetry of single crystals and by internal symmetry of atomic arrangement. What is the main difference between external and internal symmetry elements?
Round 1 – Question 3 What are the four types of external symmetry operations? (must know all four)
Round 1 – Question 4 Two-fold roto-inversion is equivalent to what other symmetry operation
Round 1 – Question 5 What is the Herman-Maugin notation for the symmetry operations shown here?
Round 1 – Question 6 Which is the proper Point Group label (Herman–Maugin notation) for the symmetry operations shown to the left? 4mm 4/m2/m2/m 4/m2/m 422
Round 1 – Question 7 How many crystal classes (point groups) are possible to describe external symmetry?
Round 1 – Question 8 Rank the six major crystal systems in order of increasing symmetry. Isometric Monoclinic Triclinic Orthorhombic Tetragonal Hexagonal
Round 1 – Question 9 The point group 4/m32/m belongs to what crystal system?
Round 1 – Question 10 The crystal class (point group) 2/m symmetry shown here belongs to what crystal system?
End of Round 1 Pass your answers to the team on your right for grading.
Round 1 – Question 1 What is the term to describe a crystal that displays imperfectly developed crystal faces? Subhedral
Round 1 – Question 2 Mineral symmetry is manifest by external symmetry of single crystals and by internal symmetry of atomic arrangement. What is the main difference between external and internal symmetry elements? Internal Symmetry involves translation, external symmetry does not
Round 1 – Question 3 What are the four types of external symmetry operations? (must know all four) Rotation Reflection (or Mirrors) Center of Symmetry Roto-Inversion
Round 1 – Question 4 Two-fold roto-inversion is equivalent to what other symmetry operation Mirror Plane
Round 1 – Question 5 What is the Herman-Maugin notation for the symmetry operations shown here? 422
Round 1 – Question 6 Which is the proper Point Group label (Herman–Maugin notation) for the symmetry operations shown to the left? 4mm 4/m2/m2/m 4/m2/m 422
Round 1 – Question 7 How many crystal classes (point groups) are possible to describe external symmetry? 32
Round 1 – Question 8 Rank the six major crystal systems in order of increasing symmetry. Triclinic Monoclinic Orthorhombic Tetragonal Hexagonal Isometric
Round 1 – Question 9 The point group 4/m32/m belongs to what crystal system? Isometric
Round 1 – Question 10 The crystal class (point group) 2/m symmetry shown here belongs to what crystal system? Monoclinic
