The volume of the sinker is computed by applying the following formula.
V = volume of sinker
A = weight of the sinker in air = 99.998 g
B = weight of the sinker in water = 87.607 g
ρ
W
= density of water (see chap. 7) at 20°C = 0.9982 g/cm³
5.2 Density determination at known volume of the sinker
 Prepare balance as described in chapter 2 "Installation of density determination set".
 Fill test liquid in the container. Filling height should be approx. ¾ of the capacity. Heat
sample liquid until temperature is constant.
 Keep the sinker ready
