Euclase and Tremolite Chemical Formula

While comparing Euclase and Tremolite 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 Euclase and Tremolite chemical formula.

Euclase and Tremolite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Euclase and Tremolite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Euclase and Tremolite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Euclase is 2.95-3.07 whereas that of Tremolite is 2.95-3.07.
