Question

If the density of basalt is greater than granite, then what can be determined about its specific gravity?

Basalt has specific gravity less than granite.
Basalt has a greater specific gravity than granite.
Basalt has a specific gravity equal to granite.
Basalt has a specific gravity equal to water.

Answer 1

Any guesses

Answer 2

d

Answer 3

Can you retake it if you fail?

Answer 4

@baconup the specific gravity is a material's density divided by the density of water

so if (density of basalt)/(density of water) > (density of granite)/(density of water) what can you say about the relationship between the density of basalt vs granite?
