Helenite and Anatase Chemical Formula
While comparing Helenite and Anatase 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 Helenite and Anatase chemical formula.

Helenite and Anatase Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Helenite and Anatase Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Helenite and Anatase Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Helenite is 3.82-3.97 whereas that of Anatase is 3.82-3.97.
