Each is a separate series of dollar coins and the designs are very different. Morgan dollars were issued from 1878 to 1904 and again in 1921, the obverse (front) of the coin has a portrait of Miss Liberty with the motto E PLURIBUS UNUM above her head, on the reverse the eagle has its wings spread out. The Peace dollar was also issued in 1921 to 1928 and 1934 & 1935 the obverse of this coin has the word LIBERTY above Miss Liberty's head and the eagle on the reverse has its wings folded.

Is mrgan dollars or peace dollars worth more?

Both Morgan and Peace Dollars have the same metal content, so on damaged, or heavily worn coins, or common dates in the same condition, both would be worth the same. However, Morgan dollars are often times found in better condition and are able to be tracked through die varieties which lead to minor differences being worth some more money because many people collect Morgan dollars based on small, tiny, die varieties. Morgan dollars also have many years with low mintage, compared to the Peace Dollar with relatively high mintages for all years. So a common date Morgan and a common date Peace Dollar in the same condition would be worth the same. But there are more rarities to be found in the Morgan dollar set so it really depends on the coin.

What is the difference between a Morgan silver dollar and a liberty silver dollar?

You've got to be more specific. All dollar coins prior to the Eisenhower dollar of 1971-1978 feature Liberty on them, even the Morgan dollar (called that because the artist who designed it had a last name of Morgan). The most commonly confused silver dollar types are the Morgan and Peace dollars because they share a date, 1921, where the Morgan dollar is quite common but the Peace dollars command quite a bit more money. The easiest way to determine the two is to look on the reverse, on a Morgan dollar the eagle will have its wings outstretched and is encircled by a wreath. On a Peace dollar, the eagle will be perched on a rock inscribed "PEACE". The front of the coins have noticeable differences too, but are much harder to describe in text than the reverse.
