How do you measure of how salty water is?

Specific gravity.


A measure of the amount of matter in a given volume?

Density aka specific gravity is a measure of the amount of matter in a given volume. Actually specific gravity is not the measure of the amount of matter in a given value, it is a comparison of the density of the substance to water's density. Specific gravity is a unitless quantity.


How do you use a hydrometer to measure specific gravity in a liquid?

To measure specific gravity in a liquid using a hydrometer, you simply place the hydrometer in the liquid and read the value where the liquid surface intersects the scale on the hydrometer. This value indicates the specific gravity of the liquid.


What instrument used to measure the specific gravity of urine is called?

A urinometer is an instrument used to measure the specific gravity of urine. It consists of a float that is placed in a tube filled with urine, and the specific gravity is read off a scale on the side of the tube.


What does the specific gravity (SG) of urine measure?

The density of urine


You would like to convert specific gravity to dencity?

It is spelled "density" and specific gravity is a measure of density and so does not need to be converted.


Does water take up more space cubic feet than diesel fuel?

A cubic foot is a cubic foot is a cubic foot... If you are referring to ask for a given equal mass of water and diesel fuel: The specific gravity of #2 diesel fuel is about 0.89, depending on the quality. The specific gravity of a liquid is the ratio of it's density to that of water. Since the specific gravity of diesel is less than one, it is less dense than water. Conversely, diesel is more voluminous than water. It will float on top of it. The answer to this question is that for an equal mass of water and diesel the latter will occupy more volume.


What is the relationship between density and specific gravity?

Specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance. Density is a measure of how mass is distributed in a given volume, while specific gravity compares the density of a substance to that of water. In other words, specific gravity is a dimensionless quantity that provides a relative measure of how dense a substance is compared to water.


Why do scientists use specific gravity?

I believe the reason behind using specific gravity is that it is easier to measure (especially when you're measuring it for a solid).


What is the specific gravity of garnet schist?

The specific gravity of garnet schist can vary depending on the composition and density of the minerals present. On average, the specific gravity of garnet schist is around 2.7 to 3.2. However, it is recommended to measure the specific gravity of a specific sample to get an accurate value.
