What unit is used with specific gravity?
The specific gravity of a substance is the ratio of te density of the substance to the density of water. It is, therefore, a unitless measure.
What specific gravity of a product will sink?
An object will sink if its density - or its specific gravity - is greater than that of the fluid it is placed in.
What instrument used to measure the specific gravity of urine is called?
A refractometer.
What is the Specific gravity of acetone?
specific gravity of acetone is 0.79
The specific gravity of a product?
The specific gravity of a product can be found on the material
What is specific gravity of high speed diesel?
8.5
How do you measure of how salty water is?
Specific gravity.
A measure of the amount of matter in a given volume?
Density aka specific gravity is a measure of the amount of matter in a given volume. Actually specific gravity is not the measure of the amount of matter in a given value, it is a comparison of the density of the substance to water's density. Specific gravity is a unitless quantity.
You would like to convert specific gravity to dencity?
It is spelled "density" and specific gravity is a measure of density and so does not need to be converted.
What does the specific gravity (SG) of urine measure?
The density of urine
Why do scientists use specific gravity?
I believe the reason behind using specific gravity is that it is easier to measure (especially when you're measuring it for a solid).
What unit is used with specific gravity?
The specific gravity of a substance is the ratio of te density of the substance to the density of water. It is, therefore, a unitless measure.
Does water take up more space cubic feet than diesel fuel?
A cubic foot is a cubic foot is a cubic foot... If you are referring to ask for a given equal mass of water and diesel fuel: The specific gravity of #2 diesel fuel is about 0.89, depending on the quality. The specific gravity of a liquid is the ratio of it's density to that of water. Since the specific gravity of diesel is less than one, it is less dense than water. Conversely, diesel is more voluminous than water. It will float on top of it. The answer to this question is that for an equal mass of water and diesel the latter will occupy more volume.
What is the amount of mass packed into a certain volume?
Density aka specific gravity is a measure of the amount of matter in a given volume. Actually specific gravity is not the measure of the amount of matter in a given value, it is a comparison of the density of the substance to water's density. Specific gravity is a unitless quantity.
What is one unit of measure for mass?
Specific gravity I think. Start there.
What is the specific gravity of automotive gas oil?
Diesel fuel has a density of approx. 0,83 g/cm3.
What specific gravity of a product will sink?
An object will sink if its density - or its specific gravity - is greater than that of the fluid it is placed in.
