Question

A patient provides a urine sample. The density of the patient's urine is 1.0192 g/mL. What is the specific gravity of the urine?

Answer 1

Answer:

1.092

Explanation:

Density = 1.0192 g/mL

oecific gravity = ?

Specific gravity is the ratio of a material's density with that of water.

The density of water at 4 degrees Celsius =  1 g/mL

Specific gravity = 1.0192 / 1 = 1.0192

Because specific gravity is a ratio, it has no dimension.
