    Specific gravity is the ratio of density of substance and density of water

    We know that density of water = 1 g / mL at standard conditions

    now as given that the 0.8 Kg of the substance / object is able to displace 500mL of water, it means that

    Mass of object = 800g

    The volume occupied by 800g of object = 500 mL

    Density = mass / volume

    Density of object = 800 / 500 = 1.6 g / mL

    The specific gravity of object = density of object / density of water = 1.6 / 1 = 1.6 (no units)
