Some representative liquids are listed in Table 3.2.2.1; all are readily available. For further information, see Meyrowitz, Cuttitta & Hickling (1959), and for very heavy liquids Sullivan (1927). Standardized solutions or mixtures from one list in Table 3.2.2.1 may be used as calibrating drops in gradients made from those of the other.
The density at temperature T K can be computed by substituting the values of the density at 298 K and α in the formula dT = d298 + 10−3α(T − 298).
†Trade name for a synthetic high-molecular-weight polysaccharide derivative.

For rapid preparation of mixtures from stock solutions of the basic compounds, a nomogram is very useful, such as is given in Fig. 3.2.2.1 for the system bromobenzene–xylene at room temperature. In the construction of the nomogram, it has been assumed that the volumes of the liquids are additive. In general, this assumption is not valid, but it is a sufficiently good approximation for the purpose.
