Determining Density Of Liquids; Series Kern Abs-N, Acs - KERN YDB-03 Mode D'emploi

6 Determining density of liquids

At the density determination of liquids, a sinker is used whose density is known. The
sinker is weighed first in air and then in the liquid whose density is to be determined.
From the weight difference results the buoyancy from where the software calculates
the density.
The density of the enclosed steel sinker can be determined as described in chap.
5.1.2 and its volume can be calculated according to the following formula:
V = Volume of the sinker
M = Weight of the sample in air
= Sinker density
ρ
Or quickly and inexpensively in our calibration laboratory.

Preparation:
 Install density determination set, see chap. 4.3.2
