A hydrometer measures the specific gravity of liquids. It looks at the ratio of the density of the liquid it is placed in compared to the density of water. They are usually made of a glass cylindrical stem adjoined to a weighted bulb which floats when placed in solution. By carefully placing your hydrometer in a sample of your solution you can take the measurement on the scale where it breaches...
Answer: a Brinometer! Brine is simply defined as a solution of salt in water. It has a wide variety of uses from the transport of thermal energy, de-icing the roads or in cooking to preserve meat or vegetables. The low levels of salinity commonly found in food or seawater can be tested in a number of ways such as on the Laqua Twin sodium meter , Laqua Twin salt meter or for a multi-pa...
A hydrometer is an instrument that is made of glass and consists of a cylindrical stem and a bulb weighted with mercury or lead to make it float upright. It is used to measure the Specific Gravity (SG) of liquids. In other words the ratio of density of the liquid to the density of water.The SG of water is 1.000 at 4°C. For example the lower the density of a substance the farther the h...
