ed cup. (1) To find the sp. gr. of a solid. (i) Place the hydrometer in water andsink it, placing weights in the tray untilthe mark reaches the surface of the fluid. (ii) Put the solid in the tray andtake out weights till the mark is againin the surface. The weights taken outare equal to the weight… … Fig. 2.S. Let the weights in the tray in (i), (ii) and (iii) be w, w, w,then W = w-w, W = w-w, and sp. gr. of solid = —r, -,. (2) To find the sp. gr. of a liquid. (i) Let the weight of the hydrometer be W lbs.
