Question

A concentrated salt solution has a mass of 5.34 g for a 5.00 ml sample. what is the specific gravity of this solution?

Answer 1

The specific gravity of the solution is 1.07, which contains 5.34g for a 5.00ml sample.

Density of a substance is

Density = Mass / Volume

             = 5.34/5

             = 1.07

Density of water = 1

Specific gravity = Density of substance/density of solvent

Specific gravity = 1.07 / 1

Specific gravity = 1.07

Specific gravity, often known as relative density, is the ratio of a substance's density to that of an industry standard.

If a material has a relative density that is less than 1 compared to the reference, it is less dense than the reference; if it is larger than 1, it is denser. Identical volumes of the two substances have the same mass if the relative densities are equal, or exactly 1.
