Please provide the full derivation of these equations. They are based on Archimedes’ principle to find porosity in solid sample. Thanks
Va (apparent volume )= (Mair - MH20)/ (pH20- pair) equation 1
Total Porosity [%] = {[(Msolvent- Mair) / (psolvent)] / Va } x 100 equation 2
Where:
Va= apparent volume
Mair= mass of air
MH20= mass of water
Msolvent= mass of solvent
pH20= density of water
pair= density of air
psolvent= density of solvent
