ermination of the specific gravity of potassiumhas been made in naphtha. For equal volumes, P represents the weight ofthe potassium, P that of the naphtha, and P that of water ; consequently,P/P will be the specific gravity of the substance in reference to naphtha, andP/P the specific gravity of… … 112 On Liquids [121- Porous substances, whose specific gravities are required, are varnishedbefore being immersed in water, which renders them impervious to moisturewithout altering their volume.
