Step-by-step explanation:

Density is defined as the ratio of the mass to the volume. The expression for density is:


Density=\frac {Mass}{Volume}

The Si unit for density is kg/m³

The dimensional expression for density = [ML⁻³]

Specific volume is defined as the ration of the volume to the mass. It is the reciprocal of density.

The BG unit of specific volume is ft³ / lb.
