Tanzanite and Sulphur Physical Properties

Tanzanite and Sulphur Chemical Formula

While comparing Tanzanite and Sulphur 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 Tanzanite and Sulphur chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Tanzanite- Ca₂Al₃(SiO₄)₃(OH)
• Chemical formula of Sulphur- SWalter Schumann , Gemstones of the world (2001)

Tanzanite and Sulphur Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Tanzanite and Sulphur Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Tanzanite and Sulphur Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Tanzanite is 2.05-2.08 whereas that of Sulphur is 2.05-2.08.
