Trinitite and Montebrasite Physical Properties

Trinitite and Montebrasite Chemical Formula

While comparing Trinitite and Montebrasite 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 Trinitite and Montebrasite chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Trinitite- SiO2, Al2O3, CaO, MgO, FeO
• Chemical formula of Montebrasite- LiAl(PO 4)(OH,F)Walter Schumann , Gemstones of the world (2001) More from other references

Trinitite and Montebrasite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Trinitite and Montebrasite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Trinitite and Montebrasite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Trinitite is 2.98-3.10 whereas that of Montebrasite is 2.98-3.10.
