Pargasite and Morion Chemical Formula

While comparing Pargasite 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 Pargasite and Morion chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Pargasite- NaCa 2(Mg 4Al)Si 6Al 2O 22(OH) 2Michael O’Donoghue , Gems, Sixth Edition (2006)
  • Chemical formula of Morion- SiO 2Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Pargasite and Morion Specific Gravity

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