Hi, does anyone know of any cheap and easy method of determining the density of gel (like the amount of gel formed from a solution)? Don't tell me by looking pls.Maybe some kind of colour coding methods?

 

Frey:-p

Do an experiment to find its mass, then its volume. Density = mass/volume.

What about putting 1kg of the gel into water which is poured into a measuring cylinder, then the volume of the gel can be found out.

Does this work?

As long as you know the volume of water you started with, it should.
