Leucite and Bort Physical Properties

Leucite and Bort Chemical Formula

While comparing Leucite and Bort 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 Leucite and Bort chemical formula.

Leucite and Bort Specific Gravity

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