Sodalite and Agrellite Chemical Formula
While comparing Sodalite and Agrellite 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 Sodalite and Agrellite chemical formula.
- Chemical formula of Sodalite- Na8Al6Si6O24Cl2
- Chemical formula of Agrellite- NaCa2Si4O10F
Sodalite and Agrellite Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Sodalite and Agrellite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Sodalite and Agrellite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Sodalite is 2.88 whereas that of Agrellite is 2.88.
