30 | 1.2631 | .0116 | 70 | 1.9459 | .0282 |
35 | 1.3211 | .0127 | 75 | 2.0869 |
The specific gravity of the intermediate degrees is easily obtained by following the directions laid down in No. 6155, adding the difference instead of subtracting it.
6164. Twaddel's Areometer Reduced to Specific Gravity. The range of this areometer or saccharometer is from 0° to 200°, 0° corresponding with water.

70 | 1.350 | 175 | 1.875 |
75 | 1.375 | 180 | 1.900 |
80 | 1.400 | 185 | 1.925 |
85 | 1.425 | 190 | 1.950 |
90 | 1.450 | 195 | 1.975 |
95 | 1.475 | 200 | 2.000 |
100 | 1.500 |
In the above table the difference between the degrees is .005, throughout; the specific gravity of the intermediate degrees.can be found by following the method given in No. 6155, adding instead of deducting the difference. (See No. 68 (Twaddell's Hydrometer).)
