Chondrodite and Erythrite Chemical Formula

While comparing Chondrodite and Erythrite 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 Chondrodite and Erythrite chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Chondrodite- (Mg,Fe) 5(SiO 4) 2(F,OH) 2Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.
  • Chemical formula of Erythrite- Co3(AsO4)2•8(H2O)

Chondrodite and Erythrite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Chondrodite and Erythrite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Chondrodite and Erythrite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Chondrodite is 3.06 whereas that of Erythrite is 3.06.
