Tremolite and Jasper Chemical Formula

While comparing Tremolite and Jasper 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 Tremolite and Jasper chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Tremolite- Ca 2Mg 5Si 8O 22(OH) 2Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.
  • Chemical formula of Jasper- SiO2

Tremolite and Jasper Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Tremolite and Jasper Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Tremolite and Jasper Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Tremolite is 2.58-2.91 whereas that of Jasper is 2.58-2.91.
