Ceylonite and Euclase Physical Properties

Ceylonite and Euclase Chemical Formula

While comparing Ceylonite and Euclase 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 Ceylonite and Euclase chemical formula.

Ceylonite and Euclase Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Ceylonite and Euclase Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Ceylonite and Euclase Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Ceylonite is 3.08-3.12 whereas that of Euclase is 3.08-3.12.
