Variscite and Druzy Chemical Formula
While comparing Variscite and Druzy 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 Variscite and Druzy chemical formula.
- Chemical formula of Variscite- AlPO4 · 2(H2O)
- Chemical formula of Druzy- Au
Variscite and Druzy Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Variscite and Druzy Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Variscite and Druzy Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Variscite is Not Available whereas that of Druzy is Not Available.
