Lazulite and Anatase Chemical Formula

While comparing Lazulite 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 Lazulite and Anatase chemical formula.

Lazulite and Anatase Specific Gravity

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