Diamond can cut glass, but so also can Emeralds and Topaz, Quartz, Tungsten and hardened Steel.
Diamond is hardest Diamond cuts glass Glass does not cut diamond
Citrine is a form of quartz. Quartz will scratch glass.
No. Diamonds cut glass because diamonds are harder than glass. Quartz is not as hard as diamond.
No, emeralds are not hard enough to cut glass. Diamonds cut glass and they are the only gemstone with this capability.
The time-honored test, that is the common and traditionally suggested practice when no microscopes for looking at it's inclusions (flaws) and characteristics are available, is to see if it will cut glass. It takes an extremely hard substance to cut glass and glass does not cut glass, so you can rule out that it is a fake made from glass in that way.
A diamond will cut glass -- an emerald will not.
If memory serves me right, that is just flat safety glass. Most any glass shop can cut you a new one. Cut the old one out and bring it to a glass shop, broken or not they need it for a pattern so they can cut you a new one. The old gasket may be cracked, brittle and hard to work with so you may want to get a new gasket. The glass shop should help you with that also.
Yes, CZ (cubic zirconia) is a man-made material that is almost as hard as a diamond and can scratch glass. However, it is not commonly used to cut glass as it is primarily used as a diamond simulant in jewelry.
Yes, diamonds can cut glass. Glass can also cut glass.
Tempered glass is "baked" after it has been cut to size, so generally speaking unless it is not of high quality, it would not be possible to cut the glass because it would just break instead of cutting.
Yes. Diamond cuts through everything. In fact, diamond is the hardest natural material on Earth. (Diamond or laser can cut diamond.) The question was 'why'... the answer is because it is the most compressed carbon based material.
Glass is hard and plasitic is softer because in the glass the particles inside are so close together making it a strong solid however in a plastic the particles are still close so it is a solid but they are not as close as the ones in glass
