Papagoite and Cacoxenite Physical Properties

Papagoite and Cacoxenite Chemical Formula

While comparing Papagoite and Cacoxenite 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 Papagoite and Cacoxenite chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Papagoite- CaCuAlSi 2O 6(OH) 3Michael O’Donoghue , Gems, Sixth Edition (2006)
• Chemical formula of Cacoxenite- (Fe+++,Al)25(PO4)17O6(OH)12•75(H2O)

Papagoite and Cacoxenite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Papagoite and Cacoxenite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Papagoite and Cacoxenite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Papagoite is 2.2-2.6 whereas that of Cacoxenite is 2.2-2.6.
