Norbergite and Amber Physical Properties

Norbergite and Amber Chemical Formula

While comparing Norbergite and Amber 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 Norbergite and Amber chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Norbergite- Mg 3(SiO 4)(F,OH) 2Anthony et al , Handbook of Mineralogy (2001)
• Chemical formula of Amber- [C,H,O]

Norbergite and Amber Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Norbergite and Amber Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Norbergite and Amber Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Norbergite is 1.05-1.10 whereas that of Amber is 1.05-1.10.
