Gahnite and Euclase Chemical Formula

While comparing Gahnite and Euclase 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 Gahnite and Euclase chemical formula.

Gahnite and Euclase Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Gahnite and Euclase Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Gahnite and Euclase Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Gahnite is 3.08-3.12 whereas that of Euclase is 3.08-3.12.
