    is connected with a specified unit volume of it, this combination is known as Density. For example, in the figures given above, the Density of milk equals 2 ozs. per egg-cupful, or 6 ozs. per tea-cupful, or 2 lbs. per jugful. Fig. 3.—Spring Balance and Pan. In each case the particular vessel used must be exhibited, as egg-cups, tea-cups, and jugs are not made to any one recognised size. It will thus be seen that in the deter- mination of the density of one particular substance, different results are obtained according to the vessels used. Examples of experiments :— ozs. Weight of egg-cup ... ... i4 ,, „ „ filled with milk ... 3^ .•. the weight of the egg-cupful of milk is 2 ozs. and the density of the milk is 2 ozs. per egg-cupful.
