New York: The International Nickel Company, Inc., 1941: 16. — "Values ranging from 21.3 to 21.5 gm/cm 3 at 20 °C have been reported for the density of annealed platinum; the best value being about 21.45 gm/cm 3 at 20 °C." 21.46 g/cm 3 — Rose, T. Kirke. The Precious Metals, Comprising Gold, Silver and Platinum. New York: D. Van Nostrand ...
Density is an intensive property in that increasing the amount of a substance does not increase its density; rather it increases its mass. Other conceptually comparable quantities or ratios include specific density , relative density (specific gravity) , and specific weight .
Since the density of dry air at 101.325 kPa at 20 °C is [10] 0.001205 g/cm 3 and that of water is 0.998203 g/cm 3 we see that the difference between true and apparent relative densities for a substance with relative density (20 °C/20 °C) of about 1.100 would be 0.000120. Where the relative density of the sample is close to that of water (for ...
The table below displays densities and specific volumes for various common substances that may be useful. The values were recorded at standard temperature and pressure, which is defined as air at 0 °C (273.15 K, 32 °F) and 1 atm (101.325 kN/m 2, 101.325 kPa, 14.7 psia, 0 psig, 30 in Hg, 760 torr). [4]

A density of more than 5 g/cm 3 is sometimes quoted as a commonly used criterion and is used in the body of this article. The earliest-known metals—common metals such as iron, copper, and tin, and precious metals such as silver, gold, and platinum—are heavy metals.
For the wet bulk density (total bulk density) this sample is weighed, giving the mass M t. For the dry bulk density, the sample is oven dried and weighed, giving the mass of soil solids, M s. The relationship between these two masses is M t = M s + M l, where M l is the mass of substances lost on oven drying (often, mostly water). The dry and ...
