The relative density of a substance is the ratio of its density to the density of some standard substance. The standard substance for solids and liquids is water. Thus for solids or liquids: Relative density = denisty of substance (kg/m3) / density of water (kg/m3) Relative density therefore has no units, it is a number, and indicates only how many times more dense the substance is than water. The relative density of water is 1 or 1000 kg/m3.

What is a formula used to calculate relative density?
The relative density of a substance X, relative to a substance Y isDensity of X/Density of Y= (Mass of X/Volume of X) / (Mass of Y/Volume of Y)If Y is water then the relative density is called the specific gravity.
What happens when you copy a formula with relative cell references?
The relative addresses will change as the formula is copied.
What is the formula to calculate density?
density = mass/volume
Formula in finding the density?
density = mass / volume
The formula for finding density is?
Density = mass / volume
What is a formula used to calculate relative density?
The relative density of a substance X, relative to a substance Y isDensity of X/Density of Y= (Mass of X/Volume of X) / (Mass of Y/Volume of Y)If Y is water then the relative density is called the specific gravity.
How do you determine relative density of butter?
When you find the relative density of butter, use the formula for density = mass/volume. First find the mass, or weight of the butter, and then divide the butter by its volume.
What is the Relationship between relative density and density?
the relation between relative density and density is that relative density of a substance is its density itself without its unit.
Relative density of natural gas?
relative density methane
How is the relative density of an object determined?
Relative density is determined by the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance.
What is the difference density and relative density?
DENSITY : density is the ratio of mass and volume of the substance density=mass/volume RELATIVE DENSITY : It is the ratio of density of a substance to the density of water
What is the difference of relative density and density?
DENSITY : density is the ratio of mass and volume of the substance density=mass/volume RELATIVE DENSITY : It is the ratio of density of a substance to the density of water
If the relative density of gold is 19.3 what would be its density?
relative density is related to the density of water. i.e. a relative density of 19.3 means that it has a density 19.3 times the density of water. The density of water is 1g/ml therefore the density of gold is 19.3g/ml
What is the unit of density and unit of relative density?
In SI system, unit of density is kg/m3 But no unit for relative density as it is the ratio of density of the material to that of water
Which density is dependent on temperature?
Relative density
What is the density of rubidium?
Relative Density = 1,5
What is relative density. What is the SI unit of relative density?
The ratio of thee density of a substance of the density of a standard , usually water for a liquid or solid and aur for a gas. The SI unit of relative density is g/ m3
