Achroite and Euclase Chemical Formula

While comparing Achroite and Euclase 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 Achroite and Euclase chemical formula.

Achroite and Euclase Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Achroite and Euclase Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Achroite and Euclase Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Achroite is 3.08-3.12 whereas that of Euclase is 3.08-3.12.
