Explore the striking geometry and symmetry exhibited by elements |
and
minerals. See how the regularity and periodicity of the crystal |
lattice structure enables different elements to combine together to |
form
solid matter. Discover the structural basis for the physical |
and
chemical properties of common elements and minerals. |
