Experiment 2 Specific Gravity of Liquids and Solids Abstract Specific gravity is a unit-less expression of a ratio of density of substance in interest relative to the reference substance. By knowing the density of a substance, specific gravity can be determined. In this experiment, Baume- Hydrometer, Mohr-Westphal Balance and pycnometer was used to determine the specific gravity of Ethyl Alcohol. For solid, which was Cupper Sulfate, only pycnometer was used to determine its specific gravity. Question and Answer 1. Q: A: Differentiate specific gravity and density -Specific gravity is a ration of the density of the substance and the density of

reference substance having the same volume. It is a unit-less value. But density is an intrinsic property of a substance expressing the weight in grams per mL of the substance. 2. Q: A: If 54.96 mL of oil weighs 52.78 g, what is its specific gravity? Density =
Mass Volume

52.78 g oil

Specific Gravity = 3. Q: A:

54.96 mL oil Density of oil

= 0.9603 g/mL =
0.9603

Density of water

= 0.9603

A pycnometer weighs 50.00 g. when filled with water it weighs 100.00 g. When filled with oil, it weighs 94.00 g. Determine the specific gravity of the oil. Masswater = 100.00 g 50.00 g = 50.00 g water Massoil = 94.00 g 50.00 g = 44.00 g oil Specific Gravity =

Q:

An insoluble power weighs 12.00 g. a pycnometer, weighing 21.00 g when empty,

weighs 121.00 g when filled with water. When the powder is introduced into the emptied pycnometer, and the pycnometer is filled with water, the three together weigh 130.00 g. what is the specific gravity of the powder? A: Mass
powder

= 12.00 g; Mass = (Mass

water

= 100.00 g; Mass

(pycnometer + water + powder)=130.00

Volume of water displaced = Volume of powder= mass of water

powder)

- Mass

(pycnometer + water + powder)

= 100.00 g + 21.00 g + 12.00 g 130.00g = 3.00 g (=3.00 ml) Specific gravity = 12.00 g/3.00g = 4.00
