Carnallite and Morion Chemical Formula

While comparing Carnallite 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 Carnallite and Morion chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Carnallite- KMgCl3•6(H2O)
  • Chemical formula of Morion- SiO 2Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Carnallite and Morion Specific Gravity

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