Carnallite and Copper Chemical Formula
While comparing Carnallite and Copper 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 Carnallite and Copper chemical formula.
- Chemical formula of Carnallite- KMgCl3•6(H2O)
- Chemical formula of Copper- Cu
Carnallite and Copper Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Carnallite and Copper Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Carnallite and Copper Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Carnallite is Not Available whereas that of Copper is Not Available.
