Method for Determination of

Density of Liquids (First Revision)

 

 

Principle of

Method

Determination of the mass at a given temperature of a volume of the material contained in a density

bottle (pycnometer) and determination of the volume of the latter by determining the mass of the corresponding volume of water at the same temperature. The density is obtained by dividing the mass of material by its volume.

Conclusions:
The density of substance 3-bromoanisole (CAS No. 2398-37-0) was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and to the Indian standard method for determination of density of liquids [IS 4730:1994 (Reaffirmed 2010)]. The mean density of substance 3-bromoanisole was determined to be 1.482 g/cm³ at 20°C and 976.4 hPa.
Executive summary:

The density of substance 3-bromoanisole (CAS No. 2398-37-0) was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and to the Indian standard method for determination of density of liquids [IS 4730:1994 (Reaffirmed 2010)]. The mean density of substance 3-bromoanisole was determined  to be 1.482 g/cm³ at 20°C and 976.4 hPa.

Additional information

The density of substance 3-bromoanisole (CAS No. 2398-37-0) was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and to the Indian standard method for determination of density of liquids [IS 4730:1994 (Reaffirmed 2010)]. The mean density of substance 3-bromoanisole was determined  to be 1.482 g/cm³ at 20°C and 976.4 hPa.

Other supporting studies from authoritative database suggests that the density of chemical 3-bromoanisole was determined to be 1.49 g/cm3 at 20 degree C.

Based on prediction done by ACD/Labs ,the density of chemical 3 -bromoanisole was estimated to 1.442±0.06 g/cm3 at 20 degree C.

As the data from lab has K1 reliability and the test was performed using OECD guidelines which has the value of density as 1.482 g/cm3 at 20 degree C,thus considered as key study for the chemical safety assessment.
