Minerals are formed by the arrangement of atoms in a crystalline structure and are considered inorganic substances. They are naturally occurring solids with a definite chemical composition and often have a characteristic crystal form. Minerals are essential building blocks of rocks and are found in abundance in the Earth's crust.
A mineral.
No, quartz crystals are not organic. They are inorganic minerals made up of silicon and oxygen arranged in a crystal structure. Organic materials are derived from living organisms, while quartz is formed through geological processes.
Salt (NaCl) is an inorganic compound that is found in nature as solid crystals.
A pearl is an organic compound, specifically formed by living organisms such as mollusks. It is made of calcium carbonate in the form of aragonite or calcite crystals, which are secreted by the organism to form the pearl.
Quartz is a mineral that is not formed from living organisms or their remains. It is typically formed through the crystallization of molten rock material or by precipitation from mineral-rich fluids.

Yes, snow is considered inorganic because it is composed of ice crystals formed from water molecules. Inorganic substances do not contain carbon-hydrogen bonds like organic substances do.

They're inorganic. The crystals 'grow' by molecules of the same substance in the surrounding liquid sticking to the 'seed' crystal.
Many inorganic or organic compounds form crystals.
Diamonds are formed in a crystalline structure from carbon. Not all crystals are formed from carbon; not all crystals are diamonds.
you should talk about how crystals are formed and what type of crystals there are

Yes, in fact that's how a lot of crystals are formed.

Yes, hematite can be formed by inorganic processes.
