What is specific gravity
  • 2 answers

Yogita Ingle 4 years, 10 months ago

Specific Gravity or relative gravity is a dimensionless quantity that is defined as the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of the water at a specified temperature and is expressed as

SG=ρsubstance/ ρH2O

It is common to use the density of wate<a href="https://byjus.com/physics/density-of-water/">r</a> at 4 oC as a reference point as water at this point has the highest density of 1000 kg/m3.
