Achroite and Vishnevite Chemical Formula
While comparing Achroite and Vishnevite 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 Vishnevite chemical formula.
- Chemical formula of Achroite- Na(Li 1.5Al 1.5)Al 6(Si 6O 18)(BO 3) 3(OH) 3(OH)Gemdat.org , Management Team (2012) Formula given for elbaite.

Achroite and Vishnevite Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Achroite and Vishnevite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Achroite and Vishnevite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Achroite is Not Available whereas that of Vishnevite is Not Available.
