Uvarovite and Sunstone Chemical Formula

While comparing Uvarovite and Sunstone 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 Uvarovite and Sunstone chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Uvarovite- Ca 3Cr 2(SiO 4) 3Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.
  • Chemical formula of Sunstone- Microcline: KAlSi3O8 Oligoclase: (Na,Ca)Al1-2Si3-2O8

Uvarovite and Sunstone Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Uvarovite and Sunstone Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Uvarovite and Sunstone Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Uvarovite is 2.62-2.65 whereas that of Sunstone is 2.62-2.65.
