While comparing Amber and Iddingsite physical properties, the important data you should know is its chemical composition. Since chemical formula defines the molecular structure of the crystal, most of the physical properties like color, tenacity, solubility are governed by Amber and Iddingsite chemical formula.
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Amber and Iddingsite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Amber and Iddingsite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Amber is 2.5-2.8 whereas that of Iddingsite is 2.5-2.8.
