What unit of measurement is used to express the density of liquids?
Terrellterrellnick
specific gravity
mass per volume
grams per ml (cubic centimeter)
or
kg per liter (cubic decimeter)
or
tonnes per cubic meter
all the above are the same thanks to the metric decimal system it is a bunch of horrible conversions if you try with ounces, pounds, tons, inches, feet, yards, etc!

∙ 11y agoThe official unit is kilograms per cubic meter; this unit is also often used in practice. It is also possible to use kilograms / liter or the equivalent gram / cubic centimeter. This unit gives numbers that are 1000 times smaller than kilograms / cubic meter.

Are grams and liters the same?
grams per liter is a measurement of density. A milliliter is a measurement of volume. They are not the same.
Are forces expressed in liters?
Mass is normally measured in Kg (kilograms). A litre is a measurement of volume. However, there is of course a relationship between the two. For example, given the exact same conditions (same density) one litre of water will have the same mass as another.
What is An appropriate SI unit for density?
kilogram The SI unit for density is the kilogram per cubic meter (kg/m3). For many situations, however, this as an inconvenient unit, and we often use grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm3) for the densities of solids and liquids, and grams per liter (g/L) for gases.
The density of solids and liquids is generally expressed in what formula form?
Any unit of mass divided by any unit of volume is a perfectly good unit of density, for any kind of substance.
Why gases are easier to compress than solids or liquids are?
Because they won't resist as much because in one volume of,gas there are less molecules per unit volume than in the same volume of a liquid or solid. There are less molecules in a gas to push back.
What derived units is usually used to express the density of liquids?
The derived SI unit for density is Kilogram per cubic metre.
What unit of measurement is used for the density liquids?
To explain first: density is mass (m) per unit volume (V)-how heavy something is compared to its size. Water, for example, has a density of 1g/cm3.
What is a hectoliter?
A hectoliter is a unit of measurement. This particular unit of measurement is used for the volume of liquids on a large scale.
What is the unit measured to express the density of liquids?
density usually signified by the greek letter rho is expressed in kg/m^3 in SI units, and lb/ft^3 in US units.
Which unit of measurement would best express the mass of a small novel?
the best unit of measurement to use to express the mass of a small novel would be grams
Optical density measurement unit what is D?
Densitron
What is the measurement of how much mass of a substance is contained in unit of volume?
The relevant measurement is density.
The unit of measurement for density is?
g/mL (mass/volume)
What unit are used to express density?
Regardless of measurement system, it involves a unit of mass divided by a unit of volume. In SI for larger quantities, kg/m3 . For smaller ones, g/cm 3. In US units, lbs/in3 .
What units are usually used for measuring the density of solids of liquids?
The unit for density is kg m-3.
Different units being use to express the measurement of density?
Density is mass per unit volume - so pick a unit of mass and another of distance and you have a unit of density - grammes per cubic mile, ounces per cubic inch, tonnes per cubic fathom. The only common one is grammes per cubic centimetre.
What unit of measurement can you use to demostrate density?
kilograms per litre.
