An 8 g object displaces 50 ml of water. what is its specific gravity? 0.16 400 16 8.3

Option A

0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Specific gravity, where M is mass of the object and v is mass of water with same volume as object. Since it's a ratio of masses, it's unitless

Taking density of water as 1 g/ml therefore the volume displaced of 50 ml is equivalent to 50 ml*1g/ml=50 g

Substituting 8 g for and 50 ml for we obtain

72 is the answer to this problem
