explain whether diamond made in the laboratory are consider to be minerals, and the second one is the mineral dolomite , a rock -forming mineral , contains oxygen, carbon, magnesium, and calcium. is dolomite a silicate? explain
Actually a diamond is a gemstone and even though the diamonds are created under laboratory conditions they are still a form of pure carbon and carbon is definitely a naturally occuring substance, so the answer would be yes they are a mineral. Dolomite is not a silicate and that has to do with chemical composition and the way they are classified. Most of igneous rock-forming minerals are silicates, so that well over 90% of the Earth's crust is composed of them. While Carbonate is a name for rocks and minerals which contain a molecule made of both carbon and oxygen known as CO32-. (CO32- is also known as the molecule carbonate). Limestone is an example of a calcium carbonate, CaCO3, which means a combination of calcium (Ca2+) and carbonate (CO32-). Other examples of carbonates include calcite, dolomite, and marble. Limestone is a fine-grained calcium carbonate and dissolves easily in rainwater, especially rainwater which is loaded with carbon dioxide in the form of carbonic acid. The more carbon dioxide in the rain, the more easiy limestone and marble dissolve.

You need 1/2 bendable copper from the hot water line under the sink to the dish wash. I find it hard to believe that's $80.
Just do it right and start at the hot valve and replace the valve with a two way angle stop or a tee and a extra valve run the line in steel braided 1/2 inch hose it is much better because you can move the dishwasher in and out with ease and there are little room for leak causing errors. When you are dealing with water and it is inside your house you should always use tthe best quality parts and replace everything whenever you can. It is cheap insurance .I have seen so many houses that were devistated bad from simple blowouts under and behind plumbing fixtures and they costed alot more to fix than 80 bucks. I hope this helps
Diamonds made in the laboratory are not a mineral by the definition of a mineral The criteria are: naturally occurring, homogeneous inorganic solid substance having a definite chemical composition and characteristic crystalline structure, color, and hardness. Dolomite is a carbonate rock containing carbon, calcium and magnesium. it will fizz when exposed to an acid. It is a close relative to limestone another carbonate rock. A silicate is something that contains SiO2, which dolomite does not
