Question

Which of the following is numerically the same as the specific gravity? Mass Weight Density Volume

Answer 1

Answer: The specific gravity is numerically equal to the density.

Explanation:

Specific gravity is defined as the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance, generally taken as water whose density is 1 g/mL.

It is also known as relative density.

The relationship between specific gravity and density of a substance is given as:

$\text{Specific gravity}=\frac{\text{Density of a substance}}{\text{Density of water}}$

Hence, the specific gravity is numerically equal to the density.

Answer 2

The answer is density
