Question 571321: Please help me check to see if this is correct,
"Calculate the specific gravity of a 10.00mL sample of urine that has a mass of 10.31g"

This is what I tried: specific gravity= density of sample/ density of water
sg= 10.00 mL/ 10.31g=0.9699

"Calculate the specific gravity of a 10.00mL sample of urine that has a mass of 10.31g"

This is what I tried: specific gravity= density of sample/ density of water
sg= 10.00 mL/ 10.31g=0.9699
===================
SG is a unitless dimension equal to density in units of gm/ml
Your number is ml/gm
