hydrometer

Also known as areometer

meetinstrument voor het bepalen van vloeistofdichtheid

AI overview

A hydrometer is a simple instrument that measures the density of liquids by using a weighted float that sinks deeper or rises higher depending on how dense the fluid is. It matters because it allows people to quickly determine a liquid's density by reading a scale, which is useful in applications like brewing, winemaking, and other processes where liquid density indicates important properties.
