"Specific gravity" or "specific density"
its density. note. density is often expressed as the ratio of the density of the substance to the density of water at standard temperature and pressure. This is known as the specific gravity of the substance. It is a dimensionless number so it has no units.
u will need the density. density = mass / volume so mass = volume x density
This is the density.
Tha amount of matter is a substance is known as MASS of the substance. Its unit is kg in SI system of units.
Absolute versus relative densityDensity is mass per unit volume. To determine an object's density (absolute), simply divide its mass by its volume. For example, 1000 kilograms of water occupies one cubic meter. We can therefore say that water's density is 1000 kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m3), which equals one kilogram per liter (kg/L), which also equals one gram per milliliter (g/mL). Now, let's say you have some other substance that also occupies one cubic meter but weighs 2000 kilograms. It has a density of 2000 kg/m3. In other words, relative to water, the substance is twice as dense as water. Now you have an idea of what relative density is.If we use water as a reference, we can compare other substances' densities to the density of water. Simply divide the substance's absolute density by the absolute density of water to get the relative density of the substance (relative to water). Relative density is a unit-less quantity; it is just a number. If a substance is denser than water, its relative density will be greater than one. If it's less dense than water, it will have a relative density less than one.Relative density is also known as Specific Gravity.
The property of matter to float or sink is determined by its density compared to the density of the surrounding substance. If the object's density is less than the surrounding substance, it will float; if it is greater, it will sink. This principle is known as Archimedes' Principle.
Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume of a substance, while relative density compares the density of a substance to the density of another substance, usually water. Relative density is also known as specific gravity. The relationship between relative density and density is that relative density is a comparison of densities, while density is an absolute measure of mass per unit volume.
The amount of mass per milliliter of a substance is known as density. Density is a physical property unique to each material and can help identify the substance based on comparison with known values. By measuring the density of a substance and comparing it to a reference table, scientists can determine the identity of the substance.
Specific gravity is otherwise known to be "Relative Density". It is the ratio of the density of a substance to that of water as water has been taken as standard. So though volume gets changed there is no chance to get change in the relative density as it is the characteristic property of the substance.
Density: the ratio mass/volume for a material, expressed in kg/m3 (SI). Relative density: the ratio between the density of a material and the density of pure water at the same temperature.
Yes, density can be used as a useful property for identifying substances in lab experiments. By measuring the density of a substance and comparing it to known values, scientists can help determine the identity of an unknown substance.
To determine the relative density of a substance, you can divide the density of the substance by the density of water. The relative density is also known as specific gravity and helps compare the density of a substance to that of water.
im in 8th grade.. but Volume, then, is measured in terms of length, and can be defined as the amount of three-dimensional space an object occupies. Volume is usually expressed in cubic units of length-for example, the milliliter (http://www.answers.com/topic/ml), also known as the http://www.answers.com/topic/cubic-centimetre (cc), is equal to 6.10237 · 10−2 in3. As its name implies, there are 1,000 http://www.answers.com/topic/milliliter in a liter.What is the properties of Density please tell at " julio-M@live.com
its density. note. density is often expressed as the ratio of the density of the substance to the density of water at standard temperature and pressure. This is known as the specific gravity of the substance. It is a dimensionless number so it has no units.
Density must be a characteristic property of the substance, meaning it is unique to that substance and doesn't change with the amount or shape of the sample. Additionally, the density value of the substance must be compared to known values to determine a match, so accurate measurement and comparison methods are essential.
The property you are referring to is known as an intensive property. Intensive properties are characteristics of a substance that do not depend on the amount of the substance present, such as density, color, temperature, and boiling point. These properties can be used to identify and classify substances without altering their chemical composition.
If the density of the substance is known, then you can calculate it. Density = Mass/Volume, so Mass = Density x Volume
