  2. Dumas method of molecular weight determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dumas_method_of_molecular...

    Assuming the unknown compound behaves as an ideal gas, the number of moles of the unknown compound, n, can be determined by using the ideal gas law, = where the pressure, p, is the atmospheric pressure, V is the measured volume of the vessel, T is the absolute temperature of the hot bath, and R is the gas constant.

  3. Archimedes' principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedes'_principle

    Common demonstrations involve measuring the rise in water level when an object floats on the surface in order to calculate the displaced water. This measurement approach fails with a buoyant submerged object because the rise in the water level is directly related to the volume of the object and not the mass (except if the effective density of ...

  5. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Regular, hexagonal ice is also less dense than liquid water—upon freezing, the density of water decreases by about 9%. [36] [e] These peculiar effects are due to the highly directional bonding of water molecules via the hydrogen bonds: ice and liquid water at low temperature have comparatively low-density, low-energy open lattice structures.

  6. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    where g is the local acceleration due to gravity, V is the volume of the sample and of water (the same for both), ρ sample is the density of the sample, ρ H 2 O is the density of water, W V represents a weight obtained in vacuum, is the mass of the sample and is the mass of an equal volume of water. The density of water and of the sample ...

  7. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

    Both gas and liquid flow can be measured in physical quantities of kind volumetric flow rate or mass flow rates, with respective SI units such as cubic meters per second or kilograms per second, respectively. These measurements are related by the material's density. The density of a liquid is almost independent of conditions.

  8. Equation of state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_state

    Thus water behaves as though it is an ideal gas that is already under about 20,000 atmospheres (2 GPa) pressure, and explains why water is commonly assumed to be incompressible: when the external pressure changes from 1 atmosphere to 2 atmospheres (100 kPa to 200 kPa), the water behaves as an ideal gas would when changing from 20,001 to 20,002 ...

  9. Hydrostatic weighing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_weighing

    Example 1: If a block of solid stone weighs 3 kilograms on dry land and 2 kilogram when immersed in a tub of water, then it has displaced 1 kilogram of water. Since 1 liter of water weighs 1 kilogram (at 4 °C), it follows that the volume of the block is 1 liter and the density (mass/volume) of the stone is 3 kilograms/liter.
