It isn't clear what the distinction is you want to make between "water" and "normal water". Water's density, or specific gravity, can vary slightly, depending on its salt content, other impurities, temperature, and even if it is pure water, its isotopic composition.

What is the difference between apparent specific gravity and absolute specific gravity and bulk specific gravity?

Dry Bulk Specific Gravity does not take into account for anything getting into the permeable or impermeable voids of say a stone by water for instance. Saturated Surface Dry Bulk Specific Gravity takes into account for anything getting into the permeable voids only of say a stone by water. Apparent Specific gravity takes into account for the volume of the impermeable voids and not anything getting into the permeable voids of say a stone by water.


Compares weight of minerals with weight of an equal volume of water called?

The weight of a mineral is compared to the weight of an equal volume of water using a measurement called specific gravity. Specific gravity is the ratio of the weight of the mineral to the weight of an equal volume of water. Minerals with a specific gravity greater than 1 are heavier than water, while those with a specific gravity less than 1 are lighter.


Specific gravity of 1 gallon of water?

The specific gravity of water is 1.0, so 1 gallon of water will have a specific gravity of 1.0 as well.


What is the specific gravity of coal?

The specific gravity of coal typically ranges from 1.1 to 1.5, depending on the type of coal and its composition. Specific gravity is a measure of density, comparing the weight of a substance to an equal volume of water.


What is a quartz's specific gravity?

Specific gravity of quartz > 2.65; variable 2.59-2.63 in impure varieties.

A mineral with a specific gravity of 3.5 would be expected to weigh 3.5 times as much as an equal volume of?

water. Since the specific gravity of water is 1, the mineral would weigh 3.5 times as much as an equal volume of water.

How do you know a product will float in water using specific gravity of a product using a material safety data sheet?

specific gravity is defined as the ratio of the density of the sample/the density of water. So the specific gravity of water is 1. Anything more dense than water will have a specific gravity above 1 and will sink. Anything less dense than water will have a specific gravity below 1 and will float.
