Water Content with respect to Mass of Water Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Water Content of Soil from Pycnometer = Mass of Water/Mass of Solids
w_s = M_w/M_s
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Water Content of Soil from Pycnometer - Water Content of Soil from Pycnometer is the ratio of the weight of water to the weight of the solids in a given mass of soil.
Mass of Water - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of water is the total mass of water.
Mass of Solids - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of solids is the actuall weight of the solid particle present in the sewage.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Mass of Water: 0.001 Kilogram --> 0.001 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Mass of Solids: 3.6 Gram --> 0.0036 Kilogram (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

w_s = M_w/M_s --> 0.001/0.0036

Evaluating ... ...

w_s = 0.277777777777778

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.277777777777778 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.277777777777778 ≈ 0.277778 <-- Water Content of Soil from Pycnometer
