3 Principle of Density Determination
Three physical magnitudes are the volume and the mass of bodies as well as the
density of matter. In density mass and volume are related.
Density [
ρ
] is the relation of mass [ m ] to volume [ V ].
SI-unit of density is kilogram divided by cubic meter (kg/m³). 1 kg/m³ equals the
density of a homogenous body that, for a mass of 1 kg, has the volume of 1 m³.
Additional frequently applied units include:
, ,
The application of this density determination set in combination with the KERN
analytical balances provides fast and safe density determination of solids and fluids.
Our set uses the "
Principle of Archimedes " to determine density:
BUOYANCY IS A FORCE. IT AFFECTS A BODY THAT IS IMMERSED INTO A LIQUID. THE
BUOYANCY OF THE BODY EQUALS THE WEIGHT FORCE OF THE DISPLACED LIQUID. THE
FORCE OF BUOYANCY ACTS VERTICALLY UPWARDS.
Thus, density is calculated according to the formulae below:
To determine the density of solid matter
Our balances enable weighing of solids in air [ A ] as well as water [ B ]. If the density
of the buoyancy medium is known [
ρ
o
] the density of the solid [
ρ
] is calculated as
follows:
ρ
= Density of sample
A = Weight of the sample in air
B = Weight of the sample in the aid liquid
ρ
o
= Density of the aid liquid
The air buoyancy is not considered in the formula.
