It's possible for a solid to have the same specific gravity as a liquid. In general, though, no. Solid and liquid forms of the same substance almost always have different specific gravities (and most often the liquid is less dense; water is one of the few where the liquid is more dense).
The five agents of erosion are water, wind, ice, gravity, and human activities.
Water and ice are not the same. Water is a liquid state of H2O molecules, while ice is the solid state of those same molecules. At temperatures below 0 degrees Celsius, water freezes and turns into ice.
The four agents of erosion are water, wind, ice, and gravity. Water erosion is caused by rivers, streams, and rainfall. Wind erosion occurs when wind carries and deposits sediment. Ice erosion is caused by glaciers moving and carving the land. Gravity erosion involves materials being pulled downhill due to gravity.
The four major types of erosion are water erosion (caused by runoff and water flow), wind erosion (caused by wind moving particles), ice erosion (caused by glaciers and ice melt), and gravity erosion (caused by gravity moving rocks and soil downhill).
Gravity affects the movement of water by pulling it downward, allowing it to flow downhill and form bodies of water like rivers and lakes. In the case of ice, gravity causes it to flow very slowly over long periods of time, known as ice flow, especially in glaciers where the ice slowly moves downhill under its own weight.
The specific gravity of ice would also be 0.917, as it is the same as the specific gravity of water because both ice and water are forms of the same substance, H2O.
Of course. Heavy water ice will sink in light water.
Yes, boiling does not alter the specific gravity of liquid water.

The specific gravity of water on earth is 1.0000 or so, and water on the moon will have the identical specific gravity as water on earth. We generally say the specific gravity of water is 1, and it is a constant.The specific gravity of water is the same anywhere, as long as the water sample is pure and the sample's density is measured at a temperature and pressure that is its point of maximum density.If we assume that we don't have a pressurized container at 1 atmosphere of pressure climate-controlled to 1-4 degrees Celsius, one might suggest that water can't exist in its liquid form on the moon. The density of water vapor (again, at 1 atm) is 0.804 g/liter (0.000804 SG). In the moon's atmosphere, that density would rapidly fall to approach zero. Ice could be stable "at night" on the moon, and solid ice has a specific gravity of 0.92.
(This is still part of the question... I posted ) I know the answer is 0.916, bc you divid the two numbers... but I am confused as to why you are able to divid the two numbers since their units don't match. For calculations in specific gravity the units must match... so why am I able to just divide these two numbers?
Wind, rain, fire, gravity , glacier retraction, waves. Moving water, ice, wind and gravity are the agents of erosion.

Gravity
Running water, waves, wind, glaciers, and gravity Erosion is formed by wind, water, ice, and gravity.
Gravity and ice are alike in that they both have mass. Gravity is the force of attraction between two objects with mass, while ice is the solid form of water, which has mass due to the presence of molecules.
