< Density for Gases Calculators

Density of Gas

Go Density of Gas in g/l = (Pressure of Gas*(Molar Mass))/([R]*Temperature of Gas)

Molar Volume of Gas given Absolute Density

Go Volume = Molar Mass/Absolute Density

Absolute Density

Go Absolute Density = Molar Mass/Volume

Molar Mass of Gas given Vapour Density

Go Molar Mass = 2*Vapour Density

< Thermodynamics Properties Calculators

Specific Gravity

Go Specific Gravity of Liquid 1 = Density of Substance/Water Density

Pressure

Go Pressure = 1/3*Density of Gas*Root Mean Square Velocity^2

Absolute Pressure

Go Absolute Pressure = Atmospheric Pressure+Vacuum Pressure

Density

Go Density = Mass/Volume

Specific Gravity Formula

Specific Gravity of Liquid 1 = Density of Substance/Water Density
S₁ = ρ_s/ρ_water

What is vapour density?

Vapour density is the density of a vapour in relation to that of hydrogen. It may be defined as mass of a certain volume of a substance divided by mass of same volume of hydrogen.

How to Calculate Specific Gravity?

Specific Gravity calculator uses Specific Gravity of Liquid 1 = Density of Substance/Water Density to calculate the Specific Gravity of Liquid 1, Specific Gravity (SG) is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water. Essentially, it compares how heavy a substance is compared to water. If a substance has a specific gravity less than 1, it is less dense than water and will float. If it is more than 1, it is denser than water and will sink. Specific Gravity of Liquid 1 is denoted by S₁ symbol.

How to calculate Specific Gravity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Specific Gravity, enter Density of Substance (ρ_s) & Water Density (ρ_water) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Specific Gravity calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.013 = 13/1000.

FAQ

What is Specific Gravity?

Specific Gravity (SG) is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water. Essentially, it compares how heavy a substance is compared to water. If a substance has a specific gravity less than 1, it is less dense than water and will float. If it is more than 1, it is denser than water and will sink and is represented as S₁ = ρ_s/ρ_water or Specific Gravity of Liquid 1 = Density of Substance/Water Density. Density of Substance shows the denseness of that material in a specific given area & Water Density is mass per unit of water.

How to calculate Specific Gravity?

Specific Gravity (SG) is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water. Essentially, it compares how heavy a substance is compared to water. If a substance has a specific gravity less than 1, it is less dense than water and will float. If it is more than 1, it is denser than water and will sink is calculated using Specific Gravity of Liquid 1 = Density of Substance/Water Density. To calculate Specific Gravity, you need Density of Substance (ρ_s) & Water Density (ρ_water). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Density of Substance & Water Density and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
