The density of sandstone is very variable as it is a natural earth material. As such, a range of densities are quoted in the literature and testing should be done on a specific sample to get an exact result.
Range of intact densities for sandstone:A
1770 - 2580 kg/m3
In imperial units:
110.5 lbs/ft3 to 161.1 lbs/ft3
Please see the related questions.

∙ 13y agoThe density of sand will vary depending on the type and what condition the sand is in. The density of individual granules of rock is approximately 2.7 to 3.3g/ml.

∙ 15y agoRelative density or density index is the ratio of the difference between the void ratios of a cohesionless soil in its loosest state and existing natural state to the difference between its void ratio in the loosest and densest states.

∙ 14y agoWe don't talk about the density of sand paper. We only distinguish between Commercial and Industrial grades.
There are three main components to sandpaper; the abrasive grit, the backing material, and the bonding agents. Industrial grade sandpaper uses higher quality components as well as tighter manufacturing tolerances.
Abrasive Grit - Industrial grade sandpapers use abrasive grit material that is stronger and less likely to break down or wear out. Higher quality grits are often very finely graded to ensure consistency.

Is an oil with the density 0.9 denser than water?
No, relative density is relative to water. Therefore, oil with a relative density of 0.9 is 90% the density of water. Which is why oil floats on top of water. Put both in a glass to see.
What is the density of sand saturated surface dry?
That depends on the type and grade of the sand
What is relative densities?
Relative density is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a given reference material.If a substance's relative density is less than one then it is less dense than the reference; if greater than 1 then it is denser than the reference. If the relative density is exactly 1 then the densities are equal
What are relative density's of common substances?

Why is it that relative atomic mass have no unit?
it is cuz relative density = density of substance/density of water at 4oC.ie. if density of substance is 300 gm cm-3and density of water is 1 gm cm-3therefore : = 300 gm cm-3 / 1 gm cm-3as gm cm-3 is on both side it gets cancelled nHENCE..................THRE IS NO UNIT FOR RELATIVE DENSITY
What is the Relationship between relative density and density?
the relation between relative density and density is that relative density of a substance is its density itself without its unit.

How is the relative density of an object determined?
Relative density is determined by the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance.
What is the difference density and relative density?
DENSITY : density is the ratio of mass and volume of the substance density=mass/volume RELATIVE DENSITY : It is the ratio of density of a substance to the density of water
What is the difference of relative density and density?
DENSITY : density is the ratio of mass and volume of the substance density=mass/volume RELATIVE DENSITY : It is the ratio of density of a substance to the density of water
If the relative density of gold is 19.3 what would be its density?
relative density is related to the density of water. i.e. a relative density of 19.3 means that it has a density 19.3 times the density of water. The density of water is 1g/ml therefore the density of gold is 19.3g/ml
What is the unit of density and unit of relative density?
In SI system, unit of density is kg/m3 But no unit for relative density as it is the ratio of density of the material to that of water
Which density is dependent on temperature?
Relative density
What is the density of rubidium?
Relative Density = 1,5
What is relative density. What is the SI unit of relative density?
The ratio of thee density of a substance of the density of a standard , usually water for a liquid or solid and aur for a gas. The SI unit of relative density is g/ m3
What is the definition of relative density?
Relative density, is also called specific gravity, and it is the ratio of the density (mass/volume) of a substance to the density of a particular reference substance, usually water. So, where density has the units of mass/volume, relative density (specific gravity) is unitless.
What the formula for relative density?
The relative density of a substance is the ratio of its density to the density of some standard substance. The standard substance for solids and liquids is water. Thus for solids or liquids: Relative density = denisty of substance (kg/m3) / density of water (kg/m3) Relative density therefore has no units, it is a number, and indicates only how many times more dense the substance is than water. The relative density of water is 1 or 1000 kg/m3.
