Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: What is the Bouyoucos scale used for?
A: It measures the concentration of soil particles (in grams per liter) suspended in a liquid to determine soil texture.
Q2: Is this hydrometer calibrated?
A: Yes, it’s calibrated at 68°F (20°C) according to ASTM standards.
Q3: Can it be used for other liquids besides soil suspension?
A: It’s primarily designed for soil analysis, but can be used for similar sedimentation studies under expert supervision.
