basalt's density
The density of basalt typically ranges between 2.9 to 3.0 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³). This variability can depend on factors such as the specific composition of the basalt, porosity, and whether it has undergone any weathering or alteration processes. In general, denser basalt rocks tend to be more compact and less porous, while those with lower densities may have higher porosity or contain more vesicles (bubbles) from volcanic activity.
