Ametrine and Spinel Chemical Formula
While comparing Ametrine and Spinel 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 Ametrine and Spinel chemical formula.
- Chemical formula of Ametrine- SiO2
- Chemical formula of Spinel- MgAl2O4
Ametrine and Spinel Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Ametrine and Spinel Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Ametrine and Spinel Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Ametrine is 3.64-3.66 whereas that of Spinel is 3.64-3.66.
