{"Image DocumentName": "Grain SizeI. Grain Volume (V) a) Based on the weight of the particle: Where: m is the mass of the particle.", "Image ImageDescription": "V is the volume of the particle. rs is the density of the material making up the particle. (r is the lower case Greek letter rho). 1. Weigh the particle to determine m. 2. Determine or assume a density. (density of quartz = 2650kg/m3) 3. Solve for V. Error due to error in assumed density; Porous material will have a smaller density and less solid volume so this method will underestimate the overall volume.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
