Rhodolite and Fire Agate Chemical Formula

While comparing Rhodolite 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 Rhodolite and Fire Agate chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Rhodolite- (Mg,Fe)3Al2Si3O12
  • Chemical formula of Fire Agate- SiO 2Arthur Thomas , Gemstones (2009)

Rhodolite and Fire Agate Specific Gravity

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