Topazolite and Agate Physical Properties

Topazolite and Agate Chemical Formula

While comparing Topazolite 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 Topazolite and Agate chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Topazolite- Ca 3Fe 2(SiO 4) 3Arthur Thomas , Gemstones (2009)
• Chemical formula of Agate- SiO₂

Topazolite and Agate Specific Gravity

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