Cavansite and Hyalite Chemical Formula

While comparing Cavansite and Hyalite 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 Cavansite and Hyalite chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Cavansite- Ca(VO)Si4O10•4(H2O)
  • Chemical formula of Hyalite- SiO 2 · nH 2OWalter Schumann , Gemstones of the world (2001)

Cavansite and Hyalite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Cavansite and Hyalite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Cavansite and Hyalite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Cavansite is Not Available whereas that of Hyalite is Not Available.
