Specific Gravity
Formula for Sp.Gr
Ddrug/DH20 (usually standard ang water)
how is specific gravit determined in liquids?
Flotation method
The specific gravity of a liquid maybe determined with the aid of a?
pycnometer
hydrometer
Mohr-Westphal balance
Two types of pycnometer
ordinary
leach
For liquid and solid
Pycnometer
Pycnometer with thermometer
Leach pycnometer
follow principle of bouyance/buoyant effect
Flotation method
Constant weight, Variable depth of immersion of hydrometer-multiple calibration
hydrometer
for light <1g/ml; heavy >1g/mL
Baume hydrometer
Tralle’s hydrometer
Alcoholometer
what hydrometer measure the constant weight, Variable depth of immersion of hydrometer - multiple calibration
Baume Hydrometer
Alcoholometer
Twadell’s hydrometer
Cartier’s hydrometer
what are the hydrometer that pertains the constant depth of immersion variable weight of hydrometer
Nicholson’s hydrometer
Fahrenheit hydrometer
Lovis bead
balloon shaped halo globe of glass with different sizes and weight with specific gravity values scratch on their side
Lovis bead
Fischer Davidson Gravitometer
Manometric method
a very convenient device for taking the specific gravity of liquids
Mohr-Westphal balance
The plimmet (occupying 5mL) suspended from the beam of balance is immersed in the liquid to be tested, in which the plummet is subject to a buoyant effect equivalent to the weight of fluid.
Principle of Mohr-Westphal balance
is measured by placing various weight on the notched beam of the balance to effect submersion of the plummet to a constant reference point
Buoyant force
it is the exert on the plummet is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced
Buoyant effect
