Zektzerite and Morion Chemical Formula
While comparing Zektzerite 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 Zektzerite and Morion chemical formula.
- Chemical formula of Zektzerite- LiNa(Zr,Ti,Hf)Si 6O 15Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.
- Chemical formula of Morion- SiO 2Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.
Zektzerite and Morion Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Zektzerite and Morion Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Zektzerite and Morion Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Zektzerite is 2.65 whereas that of Morion is 2.65.
