Beryl and Rutile Chemical Formula

While comparing Beryl and Rutile 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 Beryl and Rutile chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Beryl- Be3Al2Si6O18
  • Chemical formula of Rutile- TiO 2Michael O’Donoghue , Gems, Sixth Edition (2006)

Beryl and Rutile Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Beryl and Rutile Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Beryl and Rutile Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Beryl is 4.20-4.30 whereas that of Rutile is 4.20-4.30.
