Which mineral substance placed at number 10 in Mohs scale

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Diamond is the mineral substance placed at number 10 on Mohs scale.
The Mohs hardness scale was developed in 1822 by Frederich Mohs. This scale is a chart of the relative hardness of the various mineral (1-softest to 10-hardest).
Diamonds also show a variation in hardness (the octahedral faces are harder than the cube faces). Mohs hardness is a measure of the relative hardness and resistance to scratching between minerals.
