Alexandrite and Fluor buergerite Chemical Formula
While comparing Alexandrite and Fluor buergerite 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 Alexandrite and Fluor buergerite chemical formula.
- Chemical formula of Alexandrite- BeAl 2 O 4
- Chemical formula of Fluor buergerite- NaFe 3+ 3 Al 6 (BO 3 ) 3 Si 6 O 18 (O,F,OH) 4 Anthony et al, Handbook of mineralogy (2001)
Alexandrite and Fluor buergerite Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Alexandrite and Fluor buergerite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Alexandrite and Fluor buergerite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Alexandrite is 3.31 whereas that of Fluor buergerite is 3.31.
