While comparing Romanchite and Shortite 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 Romanchite and Shortite chemical formula.
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Romanchite and Shortite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Romanchite and Shortite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Romanchite is 2.61 whereas that of Shortite is 2.61.
