Sogdianite and Agate Physical Properties

Sogdianite and Agate Chemical Formula

While comparing Sogdianite and 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 Sogdianite and Agate chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Sogdianite- (K,Na) 2(Li,Fe) 3(Zr,Ti,Fe)Si 12O 30Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.
• Chemical formula of Agate- SiO₂

Sogdianite and Agate Specific Gravity

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