Larvikite and Euclase Chemical Formula
While comparing Larvikite and Euclase 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 Larvikite and Euclase chemical formula.

Larvikite and Euclase Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Larvikite and Euclase Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Larvikite and Euclase Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Larvikite is 3.08-3.12 whereas that of Euclase is 3.08-3.12.
