Weight would not exist w/o gravity. Weight is defined as mass times the force of gravity acting on that weight. Mass is constant, density is constant, and volume is constant, if gravity is the only variable.

How to determine specific gravity of oils?
The term specific gravity means density in comparison to that of water. Density is weight divided by volume. So to get the volume, pour the oil into a graduated cylinder or measuring cup (same principle). To get the weight, use a scale (a chemist would use a triple beam balance). Once you have the density you can divide it by the density of water, and the result is the specific gravity.
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.
How you can find the percentage and specific gravity of unknown HCl?
find, at the given temperature and pressure, weight of HCL and volume of the same. Find density of HCL by Density of HCL= weight/volume Specific gravity of HCL= density of HCL/density of water
What is the mass 1m?
Weight and length cannot be associated without knowing other dimensions for the volume, or the density
What are 3 different ways you can classify mixtures?
1.Density. (The weight of matter in a liquid.) 2.Volume. (The amount of space matter takes up.) 3.Weight. (How heavy matter is depending on the gravity.)
What is the formula for calculating weight if density and volume are given?
Weight = (density) times (volume)The definition of density is mass/volume .Now [ weight = mass x gravity ], so [ mass = weight/gravity ], and [ density = weight/gravity x volume ] .So Weight = (density) x (volume) x (gravity)
Does density of an object depend on the gravity of the object?
Density is not affected by gravity. Density is affected by mass and volume, such that density = mass/volume. Weight, but not mass, is affected by gravity. Weight and mass are not the same thing.
Distinguish between mass density and weight density?
The difference is that the mass density not effect by gravity but weight density effect by gravity. for example if mass density cotn in earth equal to 20 kg/m3 and weight density equal to 196.2 N/m3 this cotn will change the weight density in the moon but mass density not change because gravity moon diffrent to gravity earth mass density =mass/volume (no gravity) weight density= (mass * gravity)/volume (gravity)
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.
How do you find density without volume?
You cannot find density without volume. Density = mass/volume
What is the relationship between grativy weight and density?
weight = gravity times massand weight = density times volume
What detirmines the weight of an object?
The weight of an object is determined by volume, density, and gravity.
How does mass volume density and weight compare?
Density = Mass/Volume is a measure of the amount of matter in a unit volume of a substance. Weight is the effect of gravity acting on a mass.
What 3 factors determine the weight of an object?
Volume, density, and gravity.
True or false Density is the weight per volume of a substance?
Hmmm... technically false. Density is mass/volume - it is an intrinsic property. Weight is subjective to the force of gravity, while density is not.
7.5 milligrams equals how many ml?
You cannot associate weight with volume without knowing the density. If you find this out. Density is mass/volume
Why is the density of lead the same on the Moon as it is on Earth?
Density is based off mass and volume, not weight and volume. Weight is a measurement of gravity, and changes based on strong the pull of gravity is in the area. Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter in an object, and does not change based on the pull of gravity. Density is Mass/Volume. Volume is a measure of how much space an object occupies. The more condensed matter is, the higher its density.
