What mineral has the greatest density?
Osmium is the densest naturally occurring mineral. It is a rare platinum metal that is denser than lead and has a density of around 22.59 grams per cubic centimeter.
How can density help identify a mineral?
Each mineral has a characteristic density (or range of densities), so if the measured density is a close match to a mineral you know, it MAY be that mineral; if it doesn't match, it is something different.
What of a mineral will determine if it floats or sinks in water?
The density of the mineral compared to the density of water will determine if it floats or sinks. If the mineral has a lower density than water, it will float; if it has a higher density, it will sink.
How do you calculate mineral volume?
Mineral density should know. Weight / density = volume
What is the density of the mineral cartridge?
A cartridge is NOT a mineral.
What is the density of mineral apatite?
Its density is: 3.19
What mineral has a density of 7.5 and a is used to start a car?
Nagyagite is the only mineral with a density of 7.5
Does the density of a mineral depend on the size on the mineral.?
No, it doesn't.
What mineral has the greatest hardness?
The mineral with the greatest hardness is the diamond.
What is the density of a mineral sample?
The density of a mineral sample is a measure of its mass per unit volume. It can be calculated by dividing the mass of the sample by its volume. The density of a mineral sample is a characteristic property that can help in identifying the mineral.
What is density out of water carbon dioxide and steel which has greater density?
Steel has the greatest density of the three.
What determines the density and specific gravity of a mineral?
The density of a mineral is determined by its chemical composition and packing of atoms in its crystal structure. Specific gravity, which is the ratio of a mineral's density to the density of water, is a measure of how heavy a mineral is compared to an equal volume of water. Both properties can provide information about a mineral's identity and help distinguish it from other minerals.
