Specific gravity is the density of a substance, compared to (divided by) the density of a reference substance, usually water.
There is a very great relationship between density and specific gravity. Density contributes to the weight of a substance under specific gravity.
Density is directly proportional to the specific heat.
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.
Density is a characteristic property of a substance.The density of a substance is the relationship between the mass of the substance and how much space it takes up (volume).
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.

"density"
the relation between relative density and density is that relative density of a substance is its density itself without its unit.

Density is a characteristic property of a substance.The density of a substance is the relationship between the mass of the substance and how much space it takes up (volume).
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.
"Specific gravity" or "specific density"
The specific gravity of a substance (as an example, I'll take iron) is the density of iron divided by the density of water. Or some other reference substance - but usually the comparison is with water.
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.
