TABLE 116.-Increase in volume when sucrose is dissolved in water at 20° C (pounds avoirdupois per gallon) Example-One gallon of water at 20° C is taken and 5 pounds of sugar (sucrose) is dissolved therein. The resultant solution at 20° C has increased in volume 0.373 gallon (column 4), the total volume being 1+0.373=1.373 gallons. TABLE 117.-Weight per United States gallon and weight per cubic foot of sugar (sucrose) solutions at 20° C. [This table is based on the density values of Plato' for solutions of cane sugar. The Baumé values are from the table of Bates and Bearce.2 The weights are for brass weights, density 8.4. One United States gallon, 231 cubic inches. One pound (avoirdupois) 453.5924 g. One United States gallon of water weighs 3,778.649 g (8.33049 pounds avoirdupois) in vacuo] Tech. Pap. BS T115 (1918). After the computations were completed, the tabulations were made by rounding off the results to the last figure given. 4284. 2 17. 11 17. 65* 18. 19 18. 73 19.28 TABLE 117.-Weight per United States gallon and weight per cubic foot of sugar (sucrose) solutions at 20° C-Continued |
