Reference no: EM13168661

a rose colored mineral specimen is giving to you for identification. It has a conchoidal fracture, no streak, and a non-metallic luster. It has can be scratched with a steel file, but not with glass or a pocketknife blade. It has no streak. Its mass is 53 grams. You place it in water and it displaces a volume of 20 cubic centimeters of water. What is the hardness of this mineral? What is the specific gravity of this mineral? show your calculations. Using all these properties, identify this mineral?
