Moroxite and Bronzite Physical Properties

Moroxite and Bronzite Chemical Formula

While comparing Moroxite and Bronzite 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 Moroxite and Bronzite chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Moroxite- Ca 5(F,Cl)(PO 4) 3Arthur Thomas , Gemstones (2009)
• Chemical formula of Bronzite- (Mg,Fe) 2Si 2O 6Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Moroxite and Bronzite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Moroxite and Bronzite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Moroxite and Bronzite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Moroxite is 3.35 whereas that of Bronzite is 3.35.
