Meaning and Origin:
A densimeter is an instrument used to measure the density of fluids (liquids and gases). It typically consists of a sealed glass bulb with a weighted end that floats in the fluid. The depth to which the bulb sinks is proportional to the fluid's density.
The term "densimeter" was first used in the 1800s and has since become a standard name for these instruments. The use of the Greek roots "densos" and "metron" reflects the instrument's function of measuring the density of a substance.
