Hardness Lab Hypothesis: Look at the minerals and metals and observe their positions on the periodic table and make a list from most to least hard Procedure: Test the hardness by using scratch tests and record your data in a data table Analysis: Based on your data, make a new list from most to least hard Conclusion: How close was your hypothesis? Is there a pattern on the periodic table that could tell you hardness? Where do you think Calcium would fit on your scale? What about Tungsten?
