🔶Different grades of crude oil have different API gravity ! 📌 Which one has greater API gravity ? ⭕ "Tube 3 exhibits the highest API gravity and the lowest viscosity, while Tube 1 exhibits the lowest API gravity and the highest viscosity." | Petroleum engineer

API Gravity Density is defined as mass per unit volume of a fluid. The density of crude oil and liquid hydrocarbons is usually reported in terms of specific gravity (SG) or relative density, defined as the density of the liquid material at 60°F (15.6°C) divided by the density of liquid water at 60°F. At a reference temperature of 15.6°C, the density of liquid water is 0.999 g/cm3 (999 kg/m3), which is equivalent to 8.337 lb/gal (U.S.). Therefore, for a hydrocarbon or a petroleum fraction, In the
