Answer:
specific gravity = 100
Explanation:
Data Given:
mass of the metal = 200 g
volume = 2 cm³
specific gravity = ?
Solution:
Specific gravity:
It is the measure of the relative density i.e density of the metal divided by the density of the water
Formula Used:
S.G = density of the substance / density of water at 4°C . . . . . . (1)
As we know
density of water at 4°C = 1 g/cm³
So first we have to find density of metal
formula will be used to calculate density
d = m/v
put values in above formula
d = 200 g/ 2 cm³
d = 100 g/cm³
Now put values in equation 1
S.G = density of the substance / density of water at 4°C
S.G = 100 g/cm³ / 1 g/cm³
S.G = 100
So, the specific gravity of the metal = 100
