Sandra asks…Specific gravity?What is the average specific gravity of rock forming minerals? Do any minerals have a specific gravity less than 1? Calculate the specific gravity of a mineral specimen that weights 280 grams and displaces 100 cubic centimeters of water.admin answers:Generally the specific gravity of rock is about 5
Yes pumice has a SG <1. It will float on water
SG = 280g/100cm^3= 2.8Michael asks…Specific Gravity?what is specific gravity? and in what units is it
