Grav-im′e-ter.

An instrument for determining the specific gravities of bodies. Nicholson's instrument consists of a hollow ball of brass or copper, having a stem rising from its top which supports a cup or dish. Another dish is suspended from the lower part of the ball by means of a stirrup; this dish is made heavy enough to keep the instrument vertical when placed in a liquid; and the weight of the instrument is such that 1,000 grains placed in the upper dish sinks it in distilled water, so that a mark about the middle of the stem is on a level with the surface of the liquid. See areometer.
