Why the Hardest Rocks Can Be Easy to Break
AdultsEducationMathPhysicsScienceGeology So, rocks are hard. But the scale we use to rank them, the Mohs scale, is only really good at quantifying that for one kind of hardness, and topaz is a perfect stone to talk about to explain that. And you can check it out in our SciShow Rocks Box subscription!
