rho~=4*g*L^-1ρ4gL1

Explanation:

"Density, "rho="Mass"/"Volume"Density, ρ=MassVolume == (0.934*g)/(0.250*L)0.934g0.250L == ??g*L^-1??gL1.

Relative density relies on a reference substance, typically water.
"Relative Density"=rho_"substance"/rho_"water"Relative Density=ρsubstanceρwater, i.e. this is a dimensionless quantity. And rho_"water"ρwater == 1.0*g*mL^-11.0gmL1 under most circumstances.
