Hematite Crystal
What minerals react to HCI?
Please please please! I need help to get what minerals react with HCI [Vinegar] The main minerals are:
Rose Quartz
Amethyst
Hematite
Pyrite
Crystal Quartz
Blue Quartz
Adventurine
Tiger's eye
and Citrite
First, vinegar is acetic acid, not hydrochloric (HCl).
What reacts best with acids are carbonates (these have CO3 somewhere in their chemical formula, such as calcite, which is CaCO3). Some like the calcite react strongly and make bubbles, others such as dolomite have weak reactions unless the acid is heated. There aren't any carbonates in your list.
Most of your list are quartz minerals (rose, amethyst, crystal, blue, adventurine, Tiger Eye, and citrine) which have no reaction with either acetic acid or HCl, but will react with hydrofluoric acid.
Hematite is an oxide, and it MIGHT react by oxidizing the iron in the mineral, but this isn't a diagnostic characteristic. The same for pyrite, which is a sulfide. Pyrite, when exposed to air and water, can form sulfuric acid, and this mineral is the cause of the orange color of acid mine drainage in coal mining areas.
NOTE - it will help you to get better and faster answers if you post your question in the correct category. Mineral questions should be posted in Earth Sciences & Geology instead of Botany, which is the study of plants. In the pages before you submit a question, you're shown a list of suggested categories, but can change it if those selected aren't the most appropriate.
