Extract

When a salt, such as sodium chloride, which crystallises at ordinary temperatures without water of crystallisation, is dissolved in water, contraction takes place; that is, the specific gravity of the solution is greater than that calculated for a solution of that strength from the specific gravity of the salt in the solid state and that of water, by the formula—
