tine or naphtha, the specific gravity ofwhich is known. The specific gravity is obtained by multiplying the numberobtained in the experiment by the specific gravity of the liquid used for thedetermination. Suppose, for example, a determination of the specific gravity of potassiumhas been made in… … Fig- 93- P -the specific gravity of the naphtha in reference to water. The product io8 On Liquids. [122- of these two fractions — is the specific gravity of the substance compared with water. In determining the specific gravity of porous substances, they are varnishedbefore being immersed in water,…
