An experiment with a pycnometer resulted in the followingdata: Mass ofPycnometer 25.567grams Masss of Pycnometer filled with water 45.245 grams Mass of Pyconmeter filled with liquid X 43.874 grams What is the specific gravity of liquid X ? An experiment with a pycnometer resulted in the followingdata: Mass ofPycnometer 25.567grams Masss of Pycnometer filled with water 45.245 grams Mass of Pyconmeter filled with liquid X 43.874 grams What is the specific gravity of liquid X ?
Explanation / Answer
Specificgravity = mass of liquid X / mass of water = (43.874 - 25.567)/(45.245- 25.567) =0.9303 Specificgravity is a dimensionlessquantity Specificgravity is a dimensionlessquantity
