Mass per unit volume of a liquid is DENSITY.

Weight per unit volume of a liquid is SP WEIGHT.

Mass per unit volume is called 'mass density' or simply 'density' and is represented by 'rho'.

The weight per unit volume is called 'weight density' and is represented by 'omega'.

I am not understanding about specific gravity and mass density.

What is the difference between mass and weight?

@Jayesh.

The mass is 'm' and weight is 'mg' where g is the acceleration of gravity.
