Dioptase and Rhyolite Physical Properties

Dioptase and Rhyolite Chemical Formula

While comparing Dioptase and Rhyolite 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 Dioptase and Rhyolite chemical formula.

Dioptase and Rhyolite Specific Gravity

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