Brucite and Morion Chemical Formula

While comparing Brucite and Morion 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 Brucite and Morion chemical formula.

Brucite and Morion Specific Gravity

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