Questions and Answers

What should be done for opaque liquids during testing?

Place the cylinder in a water bath maintained at 50 C.

What should you do immediately after obtaining a steady temperature reading with the thermometer?

Record the temperature of the sample to the nearest 0.20 °C and then remove the thermometer.

How should you depress the hydrometer into the liquid?

Depress the hydrometer about two scale divisions into the liquid and then release it to float freely away from the walls of the cylinder.
