1L of pure distillate in grams

I’ve always used the 1g/1ml ratio.
So 1000ml = 1000g

here is 500g, slightly under 500ml

hope it helps

Distillate floats. Just.

It shouldn’t be a whole lot different from high grade crude. Which I’ve seen in the 0.96-0.98g/ml range.

mass=1.02g/ml

Anyone know why warm distillate would weigh more than room temp? I’ve often poured out hot d9 into a jar and as it cools the weight slowly drops

I was told this in college without an explanation. Google says
If you have absolutely identical objects that have the same weight exactly when they are at the same temperature, then when one object is heated , it will weigh more . This is because the gravitational force depends on the stress energy tensor in general relativity.

you shouldn’t be able to measure that difference with the tools you’re using…

If you have absolutely identical objects that have the same weight exactly when they are at the same temperature, then when one object is heated, it will weigh more. This is because the gravitational force depends on the stress energy tensor in general relativity. The stress energy tensor 00 component is the total energy of the body, which includes the rest mass plus the kinetic energy of the object. Temperature differences means that there is a different amount of kinetic energy in the motion of the atoms of the two bodies.

For example, if you start with two identical kilograms of water at 0 Celsius, and if you then heat one of them to 100 Celsius, then the kilogram at 100 Celsius would be heavier by an amount equivalent to 4.6 nanograms of additional water weight (see 100*1000 calories / c^2 ).

There’s a far more measurable difference. I will find the literature that discusses what’s actually going on I believe it’s the heat convection energy leaving the object that causes it to weigh more

I have seen a good amount of scales be off due to temperature of hot distillate. To fix this I have put a insulator between the container and the scale plate and it’s made it more accurate when warm.

warm strain gauges makes sense.

general relativity on the other hand…

I’m using an ohaus scout that measures down to .1 gram. If I pour about 50g of hot.distillate into a mason jar by the time it cools to.room temp it.will only be like 48 grams

Try insulating the metal pan from the heat of the jar and see if the same thing happens. Unless maybe there is some volatile compound evaporating off, but that would seem unlikely.

I’ll try that next time thanks

Sooo…hot strain gauge? Or?!?

Dont ohaus scales use resistance between two non touching metal plates to read weight. Does heat have an effect on conductivity?

A quick search says yes. Maybe from what people are reporting about insulation fixing it points to that being a potential cause. A hot disty jar is heating the area around where the digital scale magic happens.
