I determined the humidity content of an acuous herbal extract with a thermobalance. The result was 88.76 %. this result means: 1) the extract had 88.76 grams of water per 100 grams of solution or 2) there was 88.76 grams of water per 100 ml of solution. I think the correct one is 1), but a colleague says it's 2). Please help.
Yeah, you are right, the first answer is right, and i completely agree with Michael Päch and Mihai Ognean. Good luck
I agree with Mr. Michael Pach. Thermobalance measure initial weight and final weight of sample an did not know the density of your sample. Be careful to other volatile compounds than water.
