What else can I help you with?
Will the hydrometer float higher in glycerin or in gasoline?
The hydrometer will float higher in glycerin than in gasoline because glycerin is denser than gasoline. The level to which the hydrometer floats indicates the density of the liquid it is submerged in.
Will a hydrometer float higher in glycerine or gasoline?
Glycerin
What is thermohydrometers?
A thermohydrometer is actually a regular hydrometer that has a thermometer inside the float section. It is very similar to the regular hydrometer.
Will a hydrometer float higher in fresh or salt water?
A hydrometer will float higher in saltwater than in freshwater because saltwater is denser, providing more buoyant force.
Will hydrometer float higher in fresh air or salt water and why?
The hydrometer will float higher in salt water because salt water is denser than fresh air. The buoyant force acting on the hydrometer is determined by the density of the fluid it is placed in, so it will float higher in salt water compared to fresh air.
What has the author Otto Hilgard Tittmann written?
Otto Hilgard Tittmann has written: 'On the reduction of hydrometer observations of salt water densities' -- subject(s): Seawater, Density, Hydrometer
What does the hydrometer measures?
a Hydrometer is used to measure the density of a solution, by the use of a scaled float. typically it is used for battery acid.
Why sea water has a higher hydrometer reading than that of freshwater?
Seawater dissolves more than fresh water because of the salinity in the water.
Why mercury is used in hydrometer?
A hydrometer consists of a cylindrical stem and a bulb weighted with mercury or lead shot to make it float upright. Mercury has a higher density, thus a lower volume for the same weight than lead. It is a toxic liquid metal, but also more dangerous and difficult to clear up the mess when a glass hydrometer is broken
Is phytoplankton a fern?
No. They are microscopic plants that float freely in seawater.
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.
Why is it easier to swim in seawater then it is to swim in fresh water?
probally fresh because no salt in mouth or eyes addition: it is easier to float/swim in seawater since seawater is denser than fresh water.
