Specific gravity which is also called relative density is the ratio of the density of an object to the density of water at 4 degrees Celsius at standard atmospheric pressure.

Specific gravity = Density of the substance Density of water 

The density of water is 1000 kg/m3; the density of gold is 19300 kg/m3.
Specific gravity = 193001000 = 19.3

Therefore, the specific gravity of gold will be 19.3.
