It isn't clear what the distinction is you want to make between "water" and "normal water". Water's density, or specific gravity, can vary slightly, depending on its salt content, other impurities, temperature, and even if it is pure water, its isotopic composition.
Dry Bulk Specific Gravity does not take into account for anything getting into the permeable or impermeable voids of say a stone by water for instance. Saturated Surface Dry Bulk Specific Gravity takes into account for anything getting into the permeable voids only of say a stone by water. Apparent Specific gravity takes into account for the volume of the impermeable voids and not anything getting into the permeable voids of say a stone by water.
specific gravity = relative density ( relative to water) , so if the mineral is 10 times the density of water, then its specific gravity is 10
Anything with overall specific gravity greater than 1.0 sinks in water.
Almost, but not quite. 'Specific gravity' is the density of a substancecompared to water.Numerically . . .Specific gravity of a substance = Density of the substance/Density of water.
The specific gravity of pure water is 1.0000 at 4 °C and 1 bar. Deviations from this will change the specific gravity. At 0°C and 1 bar, liquid water has a specific gravity of 0.9999 (one of the only substances to EXPAND as it approaches its freezing point). At 100 °C and 1 bar, the specific gravity of liquid water is 0.9584. At 0 °C and 150 bar, liquid water has a specific gravity of about 1.007.
Specific gravity is a characteristic of a substance. The size of the sample is irrelevant. The normal specific gravity of urine in healthy individuals ranges from 1.003 to 1.03 . The specific gravity of pure water is 1.00 .

Specific gravity and density will have the same value when the two substances under investigation have identical densities. Density is an expression of the amount of mass per unit of volume that a substance exhibits. Specific gravity is a comparison of the density of a substance to the density of water.
Hardness compares the weight of a mineral with the weight of an equal amount of water
Relative density, or specific gravity, is the ratio of the density (mass of a unit volume) of a substance to the density of a given reference material. Specific gravity usually means relative density with respect to water.
