Comparing the density of a liquid to the density of water is?
This is the determination of the specific density (the ratio liquid density/water density).
What does it mean when salfuric acid has a specific gravity of 1.8?
Specific gravity of sulfuric acid = 1.8 specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water (waters density in the denominator). So this means the density is 1.8 g/mL
What are importances of specific density in foods?
every matter has its own specific density which is determine previously and a given sample is tested if its specific density varies from standard density it is a sign of adulteration in food so with the help of specific density of food we can found adulteration in food , but this method is not quiet reliable as a mixture of two substance can have same specific density as original food material but still it is used to have random check of food sample.
What is the difference between specific gravity and density?
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.
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 kind of minerals are in Jaspilite?
potatoes
Is density the same thing as specific gravity?
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 property which compares the density of a substance with that of water is known as its?
"Specific gravity" or "specific density"
What is the relationship between density and specific gravity?
There is a very great relationship between density and specific gravity. Density contributes to the weight of a substance under specific gravity.
Comparing the density of a liquid to the density of water is?
This is the determination of the specific density (the ratio liquid density/water density).
When the specific gravity equal to density?
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.
What is the relationship between the density and the specific heat capacity of a pure substance?
Density is directly proportional to the specific heat.
Is specific gravity the same as density?
More or less. Specific gravity is the density of a substance, compared to the density of water - so the units may vary.
What is the relationship between the density of a substance and its specific gravity?
Specific gravity is the density of a substance, compared to (divided by) the density of a reference substance, usually water.
What does it mean when salfuric acid has a specific gravity of 1.8?
Specific gravity of sulfuric acid = 1.8 specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water (waters density in the denominator). So this means the density is 1.8 g/mL

Does specific gravity has units?
- The specific weight is the weight of a known volume of material at a given temperature and pressure; the unit of measure is kN/m3. - But if you think to relative density: Relative density (specific gravity) is the ratio between the density of the material to be tested and the density of water, at a given temperature and pressure; consequently no unit of measure for this ratio.
