A litre is a volumetric measurement and kg (kilogram) is a measurement of weight. Specific gravity is a measure of density. It compares density of elements or material (stuff) to the weight of one kilogram of water. If the material (stuff) in question is less dense (lighter) than water, additional volume of the stuff is needed to equal one kilogram of water. The opposite (meaning less stuff) is needed for heavey stuff. In this case the specific gravity of 79 means the material is 79 times more dense than water so only one 79th of a litre is needed to equal a kilogram of water so (X litres/815 kg = 79; X - 10.3 litres)

To convert 50 kg to liters for a substance with a specific gravity of 1.3, you would divide the mass by the specific gravity. So, 50 kg / 1.3 = approximately 38.46 liters.

1 liter (1000 cm3) of a substance having density (sg) 1.0 has a mass of 1 kg

So

50 / 1.3 = 38
