16 ounces of mercury would weigh approximately 1 pound.
*Weigh the empty glass ( For Accurate Result - Dry the Glass in a Drier to remove moisture and then weigh) * Fill it with water and Weigh * get the Exact weight of the water ( whatever level the glass may be filled) *Use relationship b/w Voulme,Mass and Density of Water @ Temperature to find out the Volume of the water U filled up! Volume = Density * Mass will give u exactly what u want !
No, water is heavier than methanol. Water has a higher density compared to methanol, which means that for the same volume, water will weigh more than methanol.
Using Archimedes principle we can find the density of such object. First let's weigh the body hanging in air using a physical balance. Let it be w1 Now immerse it in water kept in a beaker and weigh once again. Let it be w2. Now using the expression density can be found. Density = w1/ (w1 - w2)
== Density of Mercury== The density of Mercury is 13,593 kg/m3 (kilograms per cubic meter). That is equivalent to 113.4 lb/gal [US].(pounds per gallon). Yikes! Compare that to water, which is about 8.34 pounds per gallon.
Yes, mercury is denser than water, so a given volume of mercury will weigh more than the same volume of water.
Your weight will be the same as a volume of mercury of equivalent weight.
Liquids such as mercury, glycerol, and sulfuric acid are more dense than water. This means that a given volume of these liquids will weigh more than the same volume of water.
A kilogram of mercury and a kilogram of water both weigh the same - 1 kilogram. However, mercury is more dense than water, so a kilogram of mercury takes up less space than a kilogram of water. This can give the impression that the kilogram of mercury is heavier, but in reality, they have the same weight.
if you are talking about the same glass that had water in it and THEN froze, then my friend the weight is the same. Ofcourse this is correct only if while freezing, no water spilled out of the glass (because ice takes up more space than water.
Oh, dude, a liter is a liter, whether it's filled with water or mercury. Like, it's a unit of volume, not some magical potion that changes size based on what you pour into it. So, yeah, a liter of water and a liter of mercury have the same volume, my friend.
You can't, unless you know what the material is. 1000 gallons of gasoline will weigh less than 1000 gallons of water, which will weigh less than 1000 gallons of mercury. Unless you know the density of the stuff, you can't figure out how much a given volume of it will weigh.
water. Since the specific gravity of water is 1, the mineral would weigh 3.5 times as much as an equal volume of water.
No. On Mercury you would weigh 37% of what you weigh on Earth.
Depends on the density of the fluid (I assume). Gallon is a measure of volume and pounds is a measure of mass. A gallon of water will weigh far less than a gallon of say mercury.
If you weigh 1,001 lbs on Earth you would weigh 378.3 lbs on Mercury.
it depends. Water pressure can effect the weight.
