Density of water = 1000 kg/m^3.
The specific gravity of water due to water = 1.
Is 1 = 1000?
The specific gravity of water due to water = 1.
Is 1 = 1000?

In the metric system the density of water at 4°C is 1.00 g/cm3 (or 1.00 g/mL), 3 equivalent to 1000 kg/m3, and hence the specific gravity (which is dimensionless) of a liquid has the same numerical value as its density expressed in g/mL or Mg/m3.
