What geometrical shapes do crystals form?
Crystals form in the shapes of hexagons or six-sided prisms.
What geometrical shapes show how crystals form?
Crystals form in the shapes of hexagons or six-sided prisms.
What are six names you could call a square?
Six names that you can call a square are rhombus, square, rectangle, kite, trapezoid, or parallelogram. All of these shapes have four corners and are known as quadrilaterals.

Do mineral crystals tend to appear in one of the six well defined shapes?
Yes
What is the lowest temperature that snow can fall at?
The water vapour forming snow has to reach 0oC to form ice crystals. There is no lower temperture for the snow formation. Interestingly the snow crystals formed are of different shapes as the temperture is lowered and the location of the formation occurs. Six-sided hexagonal crystals are shaped in high clouds, needles or flat six-sided crystals are shaped in middle height clouds and a wide variety of six-sided shapes are formed in low clouds. At colder temperatures the flakes have sharper tips on the sides of the crystals and more branching of the snowflake arms. Snowflake shapes at various (approximate) formation temperatures are: -16° C - Thin hexagonal plates -10° C - Needles -8° C - Hollow columns -5°C - Sector plates (hexagons with indentations) -2°C - Dendrites (lacy hexagonal shapes)

How many crystal shapes are there?
Mineral crystals are generally categorized into six different classes, depending on the number, length, and angular relationships between their axes. Their shapes or habits, however, are enormously varied. See the link below.

What are crystal form and cleavage?
Crystals come in different shapes, determined by how the molecules of compounds from which they are made can be packed together. For instance a quarts crystal is hexagonal in shape, while galena and pyrites crystals are cubic. There are six different crystal shapes or forms determined by the axes and degree of symmetry of the crystal and the angles at which the axes intersect. Subordinate to the overall crystal shapes, many crystalline substances have within them planes of weakness along which the crystal may break these lines are related to the crystals symmetry and caused by how the molecules are aligned within the crystal. This is cleavage.
What is the shape of the calcite?
Calcite crystals form in a wide variety of shapes, but tend to break into rhombohedrons (six-sided solids that resemble cubes except that the faces meet at 60° instead of 90°).
What is six sided ice crystals?
snow
