You could use the streak color, whether it has cleavage or fracture, the texture, the luster, the hardness, the color, and lots of different properties.
by their special properties like taste ,florescence, chemical reaction, optical properties , magnetism , radioactivity! hope helped ya :)
Different rocks have different properties due to variations in their mineral composition, formation processes, and environmental conditions. Rocks are made up of minerals, which determine their color, hardness, texture, and other physical properties. The way in which rocks are formed, whether through cooling of magma or the accumulation of sediment, also contributes to their unique characteristics. Additionally, environmental factors such as pressure and temperature can influence the properties of rocks.
If you had a piece of metal, you could use these properties to determine which element it is. Iron has different physical and chemical properties than the other two elements. The density of iron is much less than cobalt or nickel, and it reacts with oxygen in the air.
A mixture is homogeneous if its composition and properties are uniform throughout. A substance is a subset of mixtures, characterized by having uniform composition only. To determine if a system is a mixture or a substance, you would need to analyze its physical and chemical properties for uniformity.
Examples: melting and boiling points, solubility in water or organic solvents, chemical composition.

Whether or not it's an acid or a base

The acid test is used to determine if a mineral contains carbonate minerals. When a mineral fizzes or reacts with acid, it indicates the presence of carbonate minerals such as calcite or dolomite. This test helps mineralogists identify and distinguish between different minerals.
melting point
no, what determines whether they will float or not is their density

Minerals are described by physical properties related to chemical structure and composition. Characteristics include color, streak, hardness, luster, diaphaneity, tenacity, cleavage, specific gravity, parting, fracture, and crystal structure and habit, which can be changed by temperature, pressure and composition of mass.
You could use properties such as cleavage, streak color, color, density, luster, and crystal habit to differentiate between the two samples. These properties can help determine if the samples are the same mineral or different minerals, even if they have the same hardness.
The three main factors that determine whether light is absorbed or transmitted are the wavelength of the light, the properties of the material it interacts with (e.g., transparency or opacity), and the thickness of the material. These factors determine how much of the light is absorbed and how much is transmitted through the material.
