Zektzerite and Baryte Physical Properties

Zektzerite and Baryte Chemical Formula

While comparing Zektzerite and Baryte 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 Zektzerite and Baryte chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Baryte- BaSO4

Zektzerite and Baryte Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Zektzerite and Baryte Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Zektzerite and Baryte Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Zektzerite is 4.3-5 whereas that of Baryte is 4.3-5.
