<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 182006, member: 112&quot;]Specific gravity and density are not the same thing. Density is the amount of something per unit volume. Most typically, one expresses the mass per unit volume for a solid or liquid. For example, 5.2 g/cm3. Specific gravity is a ratio of the mass of a material to the mass of an equal volume of water at 4 oC (39 oF). Because specific gravity is a ratio, it is a unitless quantity. For example, the specific gravity of water at 4 oC is 1.0 while its density is 1.0 g/cm3.</p><p><br /></p><p>The specific gravity of sterling silver is 10.36, pure silver is 10.49.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
