Description

Hydrometer is a classic laboratory instrument designed for measuring the specific gravity (relative density) of heavy liquids. It is widely used in physics and chemistry laboratories, especially in educational settings, to demonstrate density-related concepts in a simple and visual manner.

The hydrometer operates on the principle of buoyancy. When placed in a liquid, it floats at a level that depends on the liquid’s density. By reading the scale at the liquid surface, students can easily compare the densities of different liquids and understand the relationship between mass, volume, and density.

With an approximate length of 300 mm, the hydrometer is easy to handle and provides clear readings during experiments. It is an essential tool for density measurements, liquid comparison studies, and basic fluid mechanics demonstrations in school laboratories.
