The dry weight of a natural stone sample is 336 g, the water-saturated weight is 340 g, and the water-saturated sample is 196 g in water. The volume of the 50 gr powder sample obtained by grinding the same stone is 18.7 cm3 measured at the picnometer. Calculate the unit weight, specific weight, and weight and volume water absorption rates of this stone.
