Gaylussite and Copper Chemical Formula

While comparing Gaylussite and Copper 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 Gaylussite and Copper chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Gaylussite- Na2Ca(CO3)2•5(H2O)
  • Chemical formula of Copper- Cu

Gaylussite and Copper Specific Gravity

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