More Information
The specific gravity of a metal or alloy is merely the weight in grams of one cubic centimeter. When it is more convenient to work in troy weights, the number of ounces per cubic inch of any metal or alloy may be found by multiplying its specific gravity by the constant 0.52686. For example, the specific gravity of 14K yellow gold is 13.07. Multiply this by 0.52686 = 6.88606 which is its weight in troy ounces per cubic inch.
