Chrysotile and Plasma Chemical Formula

While comparing Chrysotile and Plasma 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 Chrysotile and Plasma chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Chrysotile- Mg 3(Si 2O 5)(OH) 4Gemdat.org , Management Team (2012)
  • Chemical formula of Plasma- Cu9(AsO4)2(OH)10

Chrysotile and Plasma Specific Gravity

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