Sunstone and Coral Chemical Formula

While comparing Sunstone and Coral 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 Sunstone and Coral chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Sunstone- Microcline: KAlSi3O8 Oligoclase: (Na,Ca)Al1-2Si3-2O8
  • Chemical formula of Coral- CaCO 3Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Sunstone and Coral Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Sunstone and Coral Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Sunstone and Coral Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Sunstone is 2.60-2.70 whereas that of Coral is 2.60-2.70.
