Zoisite and Jet Physical Properties

Zoisite and Jet Chemical Formula

While comparing Zoisite and Jet 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 Zoisite and Jet chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Zoisite- Ca₂Al₃(SiO₄)₃(OH)
• Chemical formula of Jet- C

Zoisite and Jet Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Zoisite and Jet Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Zoisite and Jet Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Zoisite is 1.19-1.35 whereas that of Jet is 1.19-1.35.
