density, the specificgravity of mercury is 371J -^ 27I =13^. An equal volume of alcoholweighs 22 grams. Hence its specific gravity is -f^. The specificgravity of chloroform is i|, since a volume equal to that of the watermentioned above is found to weigh 41J grams. Since it is true that the… … Fig. 43. 54 Elements of Physics. To find the specific gravity of a solid, weigh the soHd inair ; weigh it submerged in water, and divide the weightin air by the difference of the weights in air and water. Experiment 41. — Submerge a small piece of roll sulphur, weighing80 grams in air, in a…
