Sulphur and Antigorite Chemical Formula

While comparing Sulphur and Antigorite 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 Sulphur and Antigorite chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Sulphur- SWalter Schumann , Gemstones of the world (2001)
  • Chemical formula of Antigorite- (Mg,Fe2+ ) 3Si 2O 5(OH) 4Anthony et al , Handbook of mineralogy (2001)

Sulphur and Antigorite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Sulphur and Antigorite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Sulphur and Antigorite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Sulphur is 2.58-2.80 whereas that of Antigorite is 2.58-2.80.
