To calculate weight using specific gravity, you multiply the specific gravity of the substance by the weight of the substance in air. This gives you the weight of the substance in a vacuum.
Specific gravity.
The unit weight of soil with a specific gravity of 2.65 is approximately 26.1 kN/mΒ³. This can be calculated by multiplying the specific gravity by the unit weight of water (9.81 kN/mΒ³).
This ratio is called the specific gravity.
The weight of a mineral is compared to the weight of an equal volume of water using a measurement called specific gravity. Specific gravity is the ratio of the weight of the mineral to the weight of an equal volume of water. Minerals with a specific gravity greater than 1 are heavier than water, while those with a specific gravity less than 1 are lighter.
Dry Bulk Specific Gravity does not take into account for anything getting into the permeable or impermeable voids of say a stone by water for instance. Saturated Surface Dry Bulk Specific Gravity takes into account for anything getting into the permeable voids only of say a stone by water. Apparent Specific gravity takes into account for the volume of the impermeable voids and not anything getting into the permeable voids of say a stone by water.
Weight is a type of measurement that is affected by gravity. Weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity, and will vary based on the strength of gravity at a specific location.
A sample may have a higher specific gravity compared to other samples due to its composition of heavier materials such as metals or minerals. Specific gravity is a ratio of the weight of a substance to the weight of an equal volume of water, so materials with higher density will have a higher specific gravity.
To find the specific gravity of fly ash, first weigh a sample of fly ash. Then, divide this weight by the weight of an equal volume of water. The result will give you the specific gravity of the fly ash.

Specific gravity
Depends on the specific gravity of the individual compnents and the specific mix design. Weight can very greatly.
