Question

Relative density of honey and spirit

Answer 1

Answer:

ok

Explanation:

density of honey is 1.45 kg/l  and density of spirit is 0.780

Answer 2

For Honey,

Relative density = mass of a volume of honey/ mass of equal volume water

But we can also use the formula

Relative density of honey = Density of honey / density of water

We know that relative density of honey ranges from 1.38 and 1.45 kg/l. So, if we take 1.40 kg/l as density of honey e.g. 1400 kg/m3 and that of water is 1000 kg/m3

Relative density of honey = 1400/1000 = 1.4

For Spirit,

As a result of an experiment where a U-tube is filled with water and spirit at the same time separated by mercury. We can find out the relative density of spirit as

ρw

hwg =  ρshsg

Since mercury is at the same level so the pressure exerted by the water and spirit is the same

ρs/ρw= hw/hs *g

ρs/ρw = 10/12.5 = 0.8
