Important Note: The YDK 01-0D density determination kit can be used for determining the density of liquid according to weights and measures regulations.
  • Page 8: Getting Started

    Getting Started YDK 01, YDK 01-0D You can use the density determination kit, YDK 01 or YDK 01-0D, with the following balances: – ME series balances (Genius series) – BA balances with a readability ≤ 0.1 mg – BP/LA balances with a readability ≤ 0.1 mg –...

Now remove the following components from the balance: – weighing pan – compensating ring for BA and BP balances – pan support for BA and BP balances Place the frame in the weighing chamber. The wedge-shaped opening at the top of the frame must face the direction from which the sample holder (sieve/glass plummet) will be placed into the frame.

  • Page 13: Methods For Determining Specific Gravity/Density

    Methods for Determining Specific Gravity/Density The Archimedean principle is applied for determining the specific gravity of a solid with this measuring device: A solid immersed in a liquid is exposed to the force of buoyancy. The value of this force is the same as that of the weight of the liquid displaced by the volume of the solid.
  • Page 14: Sources Of Error And Possibilities For Correction

    Sources of Error and Possibilities for Correction The formula on the previous page for determining the specific gravity of solids is sufficient to obtain an accuracy of one to two decimal places. Depending on the accuracy you require, consider the following error and allowance factors.
  • Page 15 To correct the liquid density for temperature, proceed as follows: – measure the temperature of the liquid using the thermometer that comes with the kit – use the table at the back of this manual to find the density of the most commonly used liquids, water and ethanol, at the temperature measured, and use this density for the value ρ...
  • Page 16 Use the following formula to correct this error: W (a) · [ρ (fl) – ρ (a)] ρ = + ρ (a) 0.99983 [W (a) – W (fl)] Since the correction factor is determined exclusively by the geometry of the measuring device setup, be sure to only use the large diameter beaker (76 mm) from the kit when determining the specific gravity of a solid.

  • Page 19 Method 2: (for this method, use the sample holder) Here, use a liquid for causing buoyancy with lower density than that of the solid for which the specific gravity is to be determined. We have had good results with ethanol (up to a density of approx. 0.8 g/cm The density ρ...

Fundamental Principles Mass (g) Density = Volume (cm The Archimedean Principle: A solid immersed in a liquid is exposed to the force of buoyancy (G). This value is the same as that of the weight of the liquid displaced by the volume of the solid.
