  6. Continental crust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental_crust

    The average density of the continental crust is about, 2.83 g/cm 3 (0.102 lb/cu in), [6] less dense than the ultramafic material that makes up the mantle, which has a density of around 3.3 g/cm 3 (0.12 lb/cu in). Continental crust is also less dense than oceanic crust, whose density is about 2.9 g/cm 3 (0.10 lb/cu in). At 25 to 70 km (16 to 43 ...

  7. Upper mantle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_mantle

    Observations of rocks exposed on the surface and other evidence reveal that the upper mantle is mafic minerals olivine and pyroxene, and it has a density of about 3.33 g/cm 3 (0.120 lb/cu in) [1] Upper mantle material that has come up onto the surface comprises about 55% olivine and 35% pyroxene, and 5 to 10% of calcium oxide and aluminum oxide ...

  8. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    Since the density of dry air at 101.325 kPa at 20 °C is [9] 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 ...

  9. Bulk density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_density

    The density of quartz is around 2.65 g/cm 3 but the (dry) bulk density of a mineral soil is normally about half that density, between 1.0 and 1.6 g/cm 3. In contrast, soils rich in soil organic carbon and some friable clays tend to have lower bulk densities ( <1.0 g/cm 3 ) due to a combination of the low-density of the organic materials ...
