specific gravity means that the ratio between the density of pure water to the density of that material is -----
so the density of the water you are talking about is 1.0254966times the density of pure water which is one so the density of that type of water is 1.0254966
density = mass / volume 1.0254966 = mass / 28316.8
mass = 29038.78 gm
= 29.038 kg the weight = m g
= mass * 9.8
=284.58 N

How many pounds does a half gallon weigh?
1 gallon of water weighs 8.3333 pounds. However, the weight depends upon the specific gravity of the liquid you are measuring.
How much does a cubic foot of hydraulic fluid weigh?
Mobil DTE 25 has a specific gravity of 0.876. Water weighs 62.387531 pounds per cubic foot. Therefore, one cubic foot of Mobil DTE 25 weighs 54.651477 pounds. Most hydraulic fluids have a similar specific gravity.
Four pounds of a gas occupies 10 ft3 WHAT would be its total volume density and specific gravity?
Volume = 10 ft3 (given) Density = 0.4 pounds per ft3 Specific gravity = about 0.0064 (using 62.5 pounds per ft3 for water)
1 cubic mile of seawater contains 50 pounds of what?
salt
How much does 1 cup of citric acid weigh?
Citric acid has a specific gravity of 103.599825 pounds per cubic foot. Therefore one U.S. gallon would weigh 13.849275 pounds.
If water has specific gravity 62.4 pounds per cubic feet what is the specific gravity of ice?
0.9168, or 916.8 kg/m3
How do you convert volume into weight using specific gravity?
start with known values Specific gravity = 1.0 for water weight = 100 pounds 100pounds/8.36 pounds per gallon = 11.96 gallons ------------------------------------ Specific gravity = 1.5 for unknown liquid weight = 100 pounds 100pounds/ (8.36 pounds per gallon of water * 1.5) = 7.97 gallons At least that's how I wuold do it....
How much elephants would be 150000 pounds?
Depends on the gravity, and the weight of the elephants. Be more specific...
When does a specific gravity of 2.509 equal a density of 50 pounds per cubic foot?
Never. The specific gravity of a substance is its density compared to water. If that happens to be 2.509, then any amount of the substance weighs 2.509 times as much as an equal amount of water. One cubic foot of water weighs about 62.4 pounds, so one cubic foot of the substance you've described weighs about 156.6 pounds. "50 pounds per cubic foot" means that the specific gravity is about 0.80 .
What is the specific gravity of stainless steel?
Steel has a Specific Gravity of 7.83. This means that a cubic foot of steel weighs 7.83 times more than a cubic foot of water (which weighs 62.4 pounds)
What is the specific gravity of aluminum in pounds?
Specific gravity is not measured in pounds. It is a dimensionless quantity, which results by dividing (in this case) the density of aliminium, by the density of a reference substance, usually water. The result of the division will be the same, whether you use international units (SI, i.e. metric), or obsolete units.
How many gallons in 20 pounds of birdseed?
It depends on what material makes the gallons and it's specific gravity.
How do you convert specific gravity 0.8349 to pounds per gallon?
For this I will use water as the unit of measure. Based on the lbs per gallon of water @ 4 degrees Celsius which is 8.33 8.33 is a specific gravity of 1 The equation to determine lbs per gallon using a basis of water lbs per gal = (sg * 8.33) So if you have 0.8349 as your specific gravity: (0.8349 * 8.33) = 6.954717 (lbs per gal) The equation to convert pounds to gallons of a different fluid that has a variable specific gravity would be: gallons = lbs / (sg * 8.33) If I have 5 pounds of a lubricant with a SG of 1.2 5 / (1.2 * 8.33) = 0.5 (gallons) http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/water-gallons-pounds-d_1710.html
