Any auto parts or auto specialties store will have a device - or a choice of devices - that will do exactly that . They are not expensive.

Device is a hydrometer.

What is measured by Specific gravity of a lead acid cell?

Specific gravity of the electrolyte in the lead acid cell or battery (assuming that the battery is not of the sealed type) is often used as a measure of its STATE OF CHARGE. Sure we can do the same with a multimeter but the above method is more accurate.


When an automotive battery is fully charged the sulfric acid and water mixture will have a specific gravity of about?

When a battery is fully charged, the amount of sulfuric acid mixed with the water is sufficient to give a specific gravity of about 1.3. The answer is C. I found this on Page 78 of the Mechanics Study Unit of Physical Science (Penn Foster). One of the uses of a hydrometer is to measure the condition of electrolyte solution in a storage battery of the type used in a car. When a battery is fully charged, the amount of sulfuric gravity of about 1.3.


What are indications that lead acid battery is fully charged?

There are two measures, cell voltage and specific gravity of the electrolyte. Cell voltage is the simplest to measure. For most automotive, flooded cell (having liquid electrolyte) batteries, 12.6 volts is considered full charge, although it is typical to have 13 volts or a bit over. The specific gravity of a fully charged battery, measured with a hydrometer, is 1.265.


What is a specific gravity meter?

Known as a hygrometer. May be as simple as a few beads of differing specific gravity in a glass tube with a rubber bulb on top or a complex electronic device that determines specific gravity through measurement of other characteristics. A battery hygrometer uses floating beads to determine the charge of a lead acid battery because the specific gravity of the electrolyte will vary for a given state of charge.


How do you measure of how salty water is?

Specific gravity.


A measure of the amount of matter in a given volume?

Density aka specific gravity is a measure of the amount of matter in a given volume. Actually specific gravity is not the measure of the amount of matter in a given value, it is a comparison of the density of the substance to water's density. Specific gravity is a unitless quantity.


How you can measure specific gravity of Diesel?

To measure the specific gravity of diesel, you can use a hydrometer specifically designed for measuring the specific gravity of liquids. The hydrometer is floated in a sample of the diesel, and the reading on the scale will give you the specific gravity of the diesel. Make sure to calibrate the hydrometer at the correct temperature for accurate results.


How do you use a hydrometer to measure specific gravity in a liquid?

To measure specific gravity in a liquid using a hydrometer, you simply place the hydrometer in the liquid and read the value where the liquid surface intersects the scale on the hydrometer. This value indicates the specific gravity of the liquid.


What instrument used to measure the specific gravity of urine is called?

A urinometer is an instrument used to measure the specific gravity of urine. It consists of a float that is placed in a tube filled with urine, and the specific gravity is read off a scale on the side of the tube.


What does the specific gravity (SG) of urine measure?

The density of urine


You would like to convert specific gravity to dencity?

It is spelled "density" and specific gravity is a measure of density and so does not need to be converted.


What does a hydometer measure?

A hydrometer measures the specific gravity or density of a liquid, which is often used to determine the alcohol content in beverages like beer or wine. It can also be used to check the electrolyte levels in car batteries.
