What does a hydrometer measure?
Hydrometer measure the density of liquids.
When was the hydrometer invented?
The hydroscope (also called the hydrometer) is thought to be invented by Hypatia of Alexandria. If this is true, the first hydroscope was invented in the 4th century.
How do you use a hydrometer?
it is liquid
Why is the hydrometer used to find density?
A hydrometer can be used to find the specific gravity (relative density) of a liquid by determining how much water it will displace. Various calibrations are used for different kinds of liquids.
Why- The lower end of hydrometer is filled with mercury or lead?
The lower end of a hydrometer is filled with mercury or lead because these heavy metals have a high density. This allows the hydrometer to float vertically in a liquid and provide accurate measurements of its specific gravity or density. The heavy metal helps to counterbalance the weight of the stem and bulb of the hydrometer.
What is the device called that measures relative humidity?
A hygrometer measures humidity. Don't confuse it with a hydrometer which measures density.
What instrument measures coolant mix ratios?
Hydrometer or refractometer.
What is a device for measuring the moisture in the air?
A hydrometer measures moisture in the air
How does calculated specific gravity compare to the hydrometer reading for the liquid?
The calculated specific gravity may be slightly different than the hydrometer reading. The calculated gravity is calculated using specific data while the hydrometer measures the liquid at a specific time and temperature.
How does the calculated specific gravity compare to the hydrometer reading for each liquid?
The calculated specific gravity may be slightly different than the hydrometer reading. The calculated gravity is calculated using specific data while the hydrometer measures the liquid at a specific time and temperature.
What is the deffence between a a hygrometer and a hydrometer?
A hygrometer measures relative humidity in the air while a hydrometer measures the density of a liquid. Hygrometers tell you about the weather, while hygrometers are used for things like checking how much charge is in a lead acid battery or checking how your home brew is going.
What does a hydrometer measure?
Hydrometer measure the density of liquids.
How does a hydrometer measure density?
It measured by the density of the size from the hydrometer.
What is most common unit used to measure heat?
there is a device called a hydrometer that measures humidity. theres a unit to measure heat called a calorie. those are two to measure it!
What device used to measure the strength of brine solution?
Salinometer
When was the hydrometer invented?
The hydroscope (also called the hydrometer) is thought to be invented by Hypatia of Alexandria. If this is true, the first hydroscope was invented in the 4th century.
What caused the development of hydrometer?
A hydrometer is used to find the specific gravity (or relative density) of liquids.
