Amethyst and Cryolite Chemical Formula

While comparing Amethyst and Cryolite 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 Amethyst and Cryolite chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Amethyst- SiO2
  • Chemical formula of Cryolite- Na 3AlF 6Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Amethyst and Cryolite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Amethyst and Cryolite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Amethyst and Cryolite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Amethyst is 2.97 whereas that of Cryolite is 2.97.
