A student labels two 250 milliliter beakers with the letters A and B. She puts 100 milliliters of water in each of them. She adds some salt to beaker A and stirs until the salt dissolves completely. Then she adds another 50 milliliters of water to beaker A. She adds more salt to beaker B, and the salt in beaker B doesn’t completely dissolve in the water even after much stirring.

Pegmatites are igneous rocks in which the individual minerals are very large. typically, the minerals are all light-colored quartz, feldspar and muscovite. if you were given a black and white photograph of a pegmatite in a quarry (where the rock has been blasted and broken), what physical properties could you use to identify those three minerals in this hypothetical photo? describe each mineral and the specific diagnostic properties. be specific.
