Diopside and Goldstone Chemical Formula

While comparing Diopside and Goldstone 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 Diopside and Goldstone chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Diopside- CaMgSi2O6
  • Chemical formula of Goldstone- Au

Diopside and Goldstone Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Diopside and Goldstone Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Diopside and Goldstone Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Diopside is 2.50-2.80 whereas that of Goldstone is 2.50-2.80.
