Specific gravity refers to the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a standard, which is usually water. A piece of metal that has a mass of 200 g and a volume of 2 cm3 has a specific gravity of 100.

A piece of metal has a mass of 200 g and a volume of 40 cm3 What is its specific gravity?
5g/cm3
How do you measure the density of a metal?
-- Get a pure piece of it. The size of the piece doesn't matter. -- Measure the mass of the piece. -- Measure the volume of the piece. -- The density of the substance is mass of the piece/volume of the piece.
The density of gold is 19.3 A piece of gold displaces 2 ml of water The specific gravity of gold is?
19.3. Specific gravity is another way of saying density.
Does a piece of wood float or sink into water?
The piece of wood floats in water because its specific gravity is less than water.

What is the volume of a piece of iron that has a mass of 3.2 kg?
Specific gravity of iron is approximately 7.85 3.2 kg divided by 7.85 = 0.4076 litre or 407.6 millilitres
What is the density of a piece of metal that has a volume of 10cm3 and a mass of 500g?
Volume = mass/volume = 500g/10cm3 = 50g/cm3
How much does a piece of metal weigh?
That would vary greatly depending on the type and density of the metal, along with the dimensions of the particular piece. The weight of a piece of anything is the volume times the density.
The density of gold is 19.3 A piece of gold displaces 2 ml of water The specific gravity of gold is?
19.3. Specific gravity is another way of saying density.
Does a piece of wood float or sink into water?
The piece of wood floats in water because its specific gravity is less than water.
What are physical properties of a piece of aluminum foil?
A piece of aluminum foil has a fixed mass and volume, it is flexible, and it is a metal that can conduct electricity.
How can you find displacement of a metal in 50 mL of water when given the mass?
Place the piece of metal in 50mL of water and subtract the 50mL from the new volume of water. The difference will be the volume of the metal in mL and cm3. Then find the density by dividing the mass by the volume of the metal. The water must completely cover the metal in order for the displacement method of determining the volume to work.
Why does hydrometer is used to find the density of dock?
It is not used for this.A hydrometer is an instrument used to measure the specific gravity (or relative density) of liquids, NOT rock.To measure the density of a rock you weigh a piece of it in air, then measure the volume of water it displaces in a measuring jug.Density = mass/volume.
What is the density of a piece of metal mass of 68g volume of 6cm3?
2
How does a piece of metal in a graduated cylinder of water allows you to figure out the volume?
The reading on the graduated scale is taken before and after the metal is lowered into the cylinder . The second reading is subtracted from the first. This gives the volume of the metal in cubic centimetres.
