the answer is 22.32
The specific gravity of a substance depends on the acceleration due to gravity. Since the gravity is lower on the moon than on Earth, the specific gravity of mercury will be different between the two. On the moon, the weight of mercury would be less than on Earth due to the weaker gravitational pull, causing its specific gravity to be different.
Oil has the highest specific gravity. Water has the second.
The gravity on Mercury is 38% of Earth's gravity. So, if you were 150mlbs on Earth, you would be 57 lbs on Mercury.
The gravity on Earth is stronger than the gravity on Mercury.
Mercury's gravity is 38% that of Earth.

mercury gravity: earth gravity
The gravity on Mercury is 38% of Earth's gravity. So, if you were 150mlbs on Earth, you would be 57 lbs on Mercury.
Mercury's gravity is 38% of that on Earth.
Mercury's gravity is approx 38%.
The gravity on Earth is stronger than the gravity on Mercury.
Mercury, it is Mercury which has highest specific gravity in liquids. Its SG is 13.56. It is the only known metal to exist in the liquid form. We however know that metals have high density. It means that mercury is 13.56 times denser than water.(as SG is with reference to water in liquids).
Specific gravity (Sg) is a value that relates substance x (in this case mercury) to that of water. Notice that Sg is unit-less, thus its a ratio value, and constant. So yes, specific gravity of any substance is the same everywhere, be it earth, the moon, or Pluto. note: Obviously gravity is different on the moon, as you mentioned about 1/6th that of earth. Finding a force of a certain substance on the moon is found by multiplying the density of water by the specific weight of the substance, multiplied by the gravitational pull. Thus, it is not nessicary to change the specific gravity of the substance.
Mercury's gravity is 38% that of Earth.
If you weigh 100lbs on Earth, you would weigh 37.8lbs on Mercury.
Density is defined as the mass per unit volume. Hence its unit is SI system is kg/m3 But specific gravity other wise known as relative density is defined as the ratio of the density of the substance to that of water. So no unit for specific gravity. Density of water is 1000 kg/ m3 Density of mercury is 13,600 kg /m3 Hence specific gravity or relative density of mercury is 13.6
