Moldavite and Sphene Physical Properties

Moldavite and Sphene Chemical Formula

While comparing Moldavite and Sphene 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 Moldavite and Sphene chemical formula.
