Hyalite and Girasol Chemical Formula
While comparing Hyalite and Girasol 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 Hyalite and Girasol chemical formula.
- Chemical formula of Hyalite- SiO 2 · nH 2OWalter Schumann , Gemstones of the world (2001)
- Chemical formula of Girasol- SiO 2 · nH 2OWalter Schumann , Gemstones of the world (2001)
Hyalite and Girasol Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Hyalite and Girasol Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Hyalite and Girasol Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Hyalite is 1.98-2.50 whereas that of Girasol is 1.98-2.50.
