Percentage  of  Alcohol. 
Am.  Jour.  Pharm. 
Feb.,  1884. 
Tralles  in  this  country,  I  have  given  considerable  time  to  preparing 
the  following  tables  from  that  scale,  and  after  the  same  extended  form 
as  those  published  in  the  Pharmacopoeia.  They  indicate,  for  each 
degree  of  specific  gravity,  the  percentage  of  absolute  alcohol,  both  by 
weight  and  volume,  from  water  having  a  specific  gravity  of  "9991  at 
60°Fahr.,  to  absolute  alcohol  of  '7939  at  the  same  temperature.  These 
tables  will  be  found  to  Imeet  every  requirement,  and,  at  the  same  time, 
free  from  the  inaccuracies  that  exist  in  those  before  noticed.
