Volume from Specific Gravity Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Volume from Specific Gravity.
Vsg = m / (SG * 998.2 )
- Where Vsg is the Volume from Specific Gravity (m^3)
- m is the mass of the substance (kg)
- SG is the specific gravity
How to Calculate Volume from Specific Gravity?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Volume from Specific Gravity.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the mass of the substance (kg).
- The mass of the substance (kg) is given as: 100.
- Next, determine the specific gravity.
- The specific gravity is provided as: 20.
- Finally, calculate the Volume from Specific Gravity using the equation above:
Vsg = m / (SG * 998.2 )
The values given above are inserted into the equation below:
Vsg = 100 / (20 * 998.2 ) = .00509 (m^3)
Example Problem #2:
The variables needed for this problem are provided below:
mass of the substance (kg) = 400
specific gravity = 40
Entering these values and solving gives:
Vsg =400 / (40 * 998.2 ) = .01 (m^3)
