Actinolite and Chambersite Chemical Formula

While comparing Actinolite and Chambersite 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 Actinolite and Chambersite chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Actinolite- Ca 2(Mg,Fe) 5Si 8O 22(OH) 2Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.
  • Chemical formula of Chambersite- Mn 3B 7O 13ClMichael O’Donoghue , Gems, Sixth Edition (2006)

Actinolite and Chambersite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Actinolite and Chambersite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Actinolite and Chambersite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Actinolite is 3.50 whereas that of Chambersite is 3.50.
