What is the dry density if soil has wet density of 130 lb-cf a specific gravity of solids 2.67 and water content of 19 percent?

You can figure out the dry density by dividing the wet density by (1+moisture content), with the moisture content in decimal form. So 130 / (1 + 0.19) = 109.24.

Does steel have a high or low density?
The Density of Low Grade SteelThe density of low grade steel is on the order of 7850 kg/m3, 78.5 kN/m3, 7.85 g/cc or 0.2836 lb/in3.
How can you calibrate interface level transmitter?
First of all you have to know the gravities of the liquids you want to measure. For example crude oil's gravity is 0.87 and water's gravity is 1. A level transmitter uses 2 inlets, including the area of the level you want to observe. You meter the distance (the height) between the two inlets. CALIBRATION: You fill the container with the heavier liquid, till the gravity's percent (%). Adjust for ZERO. Fill till 100% to have the SPAN. The gravity selector must be at the right position.
What well known scientist said Invention is 10 percent inspiration and 90 percent perspiration?
I believe Thomas Edison said Genius is 10 percent inspiration and 90 percent perspiration.
How many dB attenuation translates into 75 percent of voltage being lost to attenuation?
100 percent means full voltage or 0 dB.When 75 percent of the voltage is lost you still have 25 percent of the voltage.25 percent means damped to (-)12 dB.
Does volume percent equal w percent?
No. Only if the two components have the same density (specific gravity), which is highly unlikely.
What is the specific gravity of 3 percent sodium chloride?
The density at 20 0C is 1,o196 g/cm3.
What is the specific gravity of 1.6 percent sodium chloride solution?
The density (the expression specific gravity is obsolete) of NaCl is2,165 g/cm3.
What Relation between specific gravity normality of a solution?
It will lower the SG. To what extent will depends upon the material and the temperature at time of measure. Altitude will and air presure will also change your SG reading. I am not sure how to compensate for either of those. However they do have charts and calculators which will compensate for temperature veriation. Hope this helps to point you in the correct direction to further your investigation of the topic.
What is specific weight of diesel fuel?
The density of diesel fuel oil (20 to 60) at 15 degress Celsius is 820 to 950 kg/m3. In other words, it has from 82 to 95 percent the density of water, or specific gravity (relative to water) of 0.82 to 0.95.

A bottle of wine has 13 percent ethanol what is the density of the wine?
This question does not really contain enough information to be properly answered. We don't know the percentage of other ingredients (mainly sugar is important) in the bottle. The density of alcohol is less than water and the density of sugar is more than water. In the end, a good bottle of wine should have a density close to that of water. With a density slightly less than water it tends to be a dry wine, and with a density slightly greater it tends to be a sweeter wine (which makes sense since sugar is heavier than water, so a greater weight implies more sugar.) To attempt to answer your question we must make some assumptions about water and sugar content. On this website [1] the author claims that dry wine has a sugar percentage of about 0.25% and a sweet wine can be as high as around 0.9-1.1%. We'll use the author's example of Yellow Tail Merlot which has 0.5% sugar. dH20 - density of water is 1000 grams/liter dEthanol - density of ethanol is 789 grams/liter dSugar - density of sucrose (the sugar in wine) is 1587 grams/liter If the wine is 13% alcohol and 0.5% sugar, then the water content is 86.5% water. Therefore: .13*789+.005*1587+.865*1000 = 975.5 grams/liter so that would be a rough estimate of your density. I can't make any claims as to how realistic this value is; wine contains many other ingredients that will impact the density, but now you can at least calculate a rough estimate for yourself, if you can figure out the sugar content for your specific wine. An important note: The wine industry doesn't use density; they use specific gravity. The specific gravity of a liquid or solid is the ratio of the density of the liquid or solid to the density of liquid water: Specific Gravity = density of Material X / density of H2O Specific gravity is technically unitless, but some people create units for it anyways.

What units of measure are employed when using a hydrometer?
The hydrometer measures specific gravity, which is a unit-less quantity that expresses the ratio of a liquid's density to the density of water. For example, if a liquid as an SG of 1.000, it has the same density as water. An SG of 1.100 indicates that a liquid is ten percent denser than water. One with an SG of 1.010 is just one percent denser. On some hydrometers there are other scales whose units are in degrees Brix, degrees Balling, or Plato. But those units are used specifically to measure sugar content in juices, wine, and beer. If you're curious about that, Wikipedia has a few articles to check out.
