Zektzerite and Heliotrope Physical Properties

Zektzerite and Heliotrope Chemical Formula

While comparing Zektzerite and Heliotrope 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 Heliotrope chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Heliotrope- SiO2

Zektzerite and Heliotrope Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Zektzerite and Heliotrope Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Zektzerite and Heliotrope Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Zektzerite is 2.61 whereas that of Heliotrope is 2.61.
