Orthoclase and Rhyolite Physical Properties

Orthoclase and Rhyolite Chemical Formula

While comparing Orthoclase and Rhyolite 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 Orthoclase and Rhyolite chemical formula.

Orthoclase and Rhyolite Specific Gravity

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