Lepidolite and Copper Chemical Formula

While comparing Lepidolite and Copper 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 Lepidolite and Copper chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Lepidolite- Mg 3Si 4O 10(OH) 2Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.
  • Chemical formula of Copper- Cu

Lepidolite and Copper Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Lepidolite and Copper Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Lepidolite and Copper Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Lepidolite is Not Available whereas that of Copper is Not Available.
