Hydrophane and Jade Chemical Formula

While comparing Hydrophane and Jade 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 Hydrophane and Jade chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Hydrophane- SiO 2 · nH 2OWalter Schumann , Gemstones of the world (2001)
  • Chemical formula of Jade- Nephrite: Ca2(Mg,Fe)5Si8O22(OH)2 Jadeite: NaAlSi2O6

Hydrophane and Jade Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Hydrophane and Jade Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Hydrophane and Jade Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Hydrophane is 2.90-3.38 whereas that of Jade is 2.90-3.38.
