Using the helium pycnometer method, the density of the test substance was obtained at room temperature (approximately 20°C). The mean density result was0.9983 ± 0.0057 g/cm3
(998.3 ± 5.7 kg/m3)
. The results of the density determinations are presented in the Table below .

Conclusions:
The relative density (D4') of the test substance was found to be 1.04
Executive summary:

The relative density of the test substance was determined relative to purified water using a pyknometer at 21°C. Aqueous Tween 80 (0.1% v/v) was employed as the displacement liquid.

The relative density (DT ) of solids and liquids is defined as the ratio of the mass of a volume of substance to be examined, determined at T°C, and the mass of the same volume of water at 4°C.

The relative density (D4') of the test substance was found to be 1.04

The relative density (D4') of the test substance was found to be 1.04.
