Both originate as molten magma but in the case of granite the magma is acidic and in the case of basalt the magma is basic.
No. Granite and basalt have different compositions and form under different circumstances.
Granite - coarse grained. Basalt - fine grained.
Basalt does have a greater specific gravity. Granite is not as dense as basalt.
No. Basalt is extrusive whilst granite is intrusive, among other things.
Both granite ans basalt are types of igneous rock.
Granite has more silica than basalt in it.
As it turns out, most of the ocean floor is basalt, and most of the continents are granite.
Granite is very much less dense than basalt. This is why the continental crust (mostly composed of granite) floats on Oceanic crust (made mostly of basalt). Granite is 70 % silicon. Where basalt is mainly pyroxene.
Granite.
Basalt can't see crystals and basalt is extrusive. Granite you can see the crystals and is intrusive.
Basalt is generally dark, mostly appearing as gray, black, or greenish. Granite is lighter than basalt, and ranges from dark red to white.
