Mineral Many sulfide minerals are economically important as metal ores; examples include sphalerite (ZnS), an ore of zinc, galena (PbS), an ore of lead, cinnabar (HgS), an ore of mercury, and molybdenite (MoS, an ore of molybdenum. Pyrite (FeS), is the most commonly occurring sulfide, and can be found in most geological environments. It is not, however, an ore of iron, but can be instead oxidized to produce sulfuric acid. Related to the sulfides are the rare sulfosalts, in which a metallic element is bonded to sulfur and a semimetal such as antimony, arsenic, or bismuth. Like the sulfides, sulfosalts are
Average variance extracted heterotrait-monotrait ratio (HTMT). Related coefficients are tau-equivalent reliability (formula_7; traditionally known as "Cronbach's formula_8") and congeneric reliability (formula_9; also known as composite reliability) which can be used to evaluate the reliability of tau-equivalent and congeneric measurement models, respectively. Average variance extracted In statistics (classical test theory), average variance extracted (AVE) is a measure of the amount of variance that is captured by a construct in relation to the amount of variance due to measurement error. The average variance extracted was first proposed by Fornell & Larcker (1981). The average variance extracted can be calculated as follows: Here, formula_2 is the
