Cacoxenite and Diamond Chemical Formula
While comparing Cacoxenite and Diamond 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 Cacoxenite and Diamond chemical formula.
- Chemical formula of Cacoxenite- (Fe+++,Al)25(PO4)17O6(OH)12•75(H2O)
- Chemical formula of Diamond- C
Cacoxenite and Diamond Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Cacoxenite and Diamond Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Cacoxenite and Diamond Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Cacoxenite is 3.50-3.53 whereas that of Diamond is 3.50-3.53.
