Question

In a relative density test, the following values are recorded:

Dry mass                                                  =          3017 g

Submerged mass                                     =          1050 g

Saturated, Surface Dry (SSD) mass        =          3033 g

Find the relative density values (RD_apparent, RD_bulk, and RD_SSD) by first completing the phase diagram. (write answers in the phase diagram to the nearest whole number. Write the relative density answers to two decimal places.)
