Bikolite and Gibbsite Physical Properties

Bikolite and Gibbsite Chemical Formula

While comparing Bikolite and Gibbsite 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 Bikolite and Gibbsite chemical formula.

Bikolite and Gibbsite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Bikolite and Gibbsite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Bikolite and Gibbsite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Bikolite is 2.35 whereas that of Gibbsite is 2.35.
