Here's a breakdown:
* Typical Density: 2.8 - 3.1 g/cm3
* Range: 2.7 - 3.3 g/cm3
Keep in mind that these values are just approximations. The actual density of a specific biotite sample may differ slightly due to factors like:
* Iron Content: Biotite with higher iron content tends to be denser.
* Presence of Other Minerals: Inclusions of other minerals can affect density.
* Crystal Structure: Variations in crystal structure can also impact density.
If you need a precise density value, you should consult a specific geological reference for the particular biotite you are interested in.
