Ratio of a mass of a substance to the mass of an equal volume of another stance chosen or taken as a
Specific Gravity
Formula for Sp.Gr
Ddrug/DH20 (usually standard ang water)
how is specific gravit determined in liquids?
Flotation method
The specific gravity of a liquid maybe determined with the aid of a?
pycnometer
hydrometer
Mohr-Westphal balance
Two types of pycnometer
ordinary
leach
For liquid and solid
Pycnometer

Leach pycnometer
follow principle of bouyance/buoyant effect
Flotation method
Constant weight, Variable depth of immersion of hydrometer-multiple calibration
hydrometer
for light <1g/ml; heavy >1g/mL
Baume hydrometer
