Hydrometer is used to determine directly the specific gravity of a liquid. It usually consists of a thin glass tube closed at both ends, with one end enlarged into a bulb that contains fine lead shot or mercury to cause the instrument to float upright in a liquid whose specific gravity is being measured

The hydrometer is based on Archimedes' principle.
