it is cuz relative density = density of substance/density of water at 4oC.
ie. if density of substance is 300 gm cm-3
and density of water is 1 gm cm-3
therefore : = 300 gm cm-3 / 1 gm cm-3
as gm cm-3 is on both side it gets cancelled n
HENCE..................
THRE IS NO UNIT FOR RELATIVE DENSITY

∙ 11y agoThey are values that are calculated in relation (hence are relative) to the mass of C-12 atoms, and therefore the mass (g) units cancel out in the equation, leaving no units.

What unit of measure is used to measure atomic weight?
expressed in unified atomic mass unit, amuHowever, for practical purposes in the laboratory the relative atomic mass is used so the unit would be gram. (Relative atomic mass compares the mass of all elements to that of the carbon-12 isotope taken as exactly 12)
What is the approximate atomic mass of a neutron?
The relative mass of a neutron compared with a proton is one.
What unit is used to meause weighted average atomic mass?
Relative atomic mass (RAM) has no unit, it's just a set of numbers, one for each element
How the relative atomic mass is related to gram?
relative atomic mass
Why is the atomic mass scale also called the relative atomic mass scale?
All atomic masses are determined by comparing them to the mass of an atom of carbon12. One atomic mass unit equals one twelfth the mass of an atom of carbon12. That's why its called relativeatomic mass.
What is the difference between atomic mass and relative atomic mass?
Atomic mass is the measure of a mass of one atom in relation to 1/12 mass of Carbon 12 atom and measured in atomic mass unit(amu) or Dalton unit or grams/mol.Relative atomic mass is also the relative mass but does not have a unit but a ratio number.

Relative atomic masses are measured in?
Atomic mass is measured in a unit called an "atomic mass unit". This unit is defined as 1/12 of the mass of a carbon-12 atom at ground state.An atomic mass unit is approximately 1.66053886 x 10-27 kg.Atomic mass is measured in atomic mass units (amu) and Daltons.

How the relative atomic mass is related to gram?
relative atomic mass
Is atomic mass unit a SI unit of an atomic mass?
The atomic mass unit is not a SI unit. An atomic mass unit is equal to 1/12 from the atomic mass of the isotope 12C.
What is the relative atomic mass of potassium?
the relative atomic mass for the element potassium is 39.0983
What is the unit of measurement use for atomic particles?
Atomic mass unit
Why is the atomic mass scale also called the relative atomic mass scale?
All atomic masses are determined by comparing them to the mass of an atom of carbon12. One atomic mass unit equals one twelfth the mass of an atom of carbon12. That's why its called relativeatomic mass.
What is the difference between atomic mass and atomic mass unit?
The atomic mass unit is used to express the measure of the atomic mass.
