Beudantite and Leucite Chemical Formula

While comparing Beudantite and Leucite 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 Beudantite and Leucite chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Beudantite- PbFe+++3(AsO4)(SO4)(OH)6
  • Chemical formula of Leucite- KAlSi 2O 6Michael O’Donoghue , Gems, Sixth Edition (2006) More from other references

Beudantite and Leucite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Beudantite and Leucite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Beudantite and Leucite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Beudantite is 2.45-2.50 whereas that of Leucite is 2.45-2.50.
