Plasma and Fire Agate Physical Properties

Plasma and Fire Agate Chemical Formula

While comparing Plasma and Fire Agate 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 Plasma and Fire Agate chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Plasma- Cu9(AsO4)2(OH)10
• Chemical formula of Fire Agate- SiO 2Arthur Thomas , Gemstones (2009)

Plasma and Fire Agate Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Plasma and Fire Agate Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Plasma and Fire Agate Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Plasma is 2.60-2.64 whereas that of Fire Agate is 2.60-2.64.
