Hexagonite and Hypersthene Physical Properties

Hexagonite and Hypersthene Chemical Formula

While comparing Hexagonite and Hypersthene 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 Hexagonite and Hypersthene chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Hexagonite- Ca 2Mg 5Si 8O 22(OH) 2Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.
• Chemical formula of Hypersthene- (Fe,Mg) 2Si 2O 6Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Hexagonite and Hypersthene Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Hexagonite and Hypersthene Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Hexagonite and Hypersthene Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Hexagonite is 3.45-3.55 whereas that of Hypersthene is 3.45-3.55.
