{{Short description|Measure of how heavy or light a petroleum liquid is compared to water}}
The [[American Petroleum Institute]] gravity, or '''API gravity''', is a measure of how heavy or light a [[petroleum]] liquid is compared to water: if its API gravity is greater than 10, it is lighter and floats on water; if less than 10, it is heavier and sinks.
