    the meniscus
3 Density of air-free water
4 Density of dry air, in grams per cubic centimetre,
    in the temperature range 10 to 30 deg C and at
    absolute pressures between 930 and 1040 mbar
5 Coefficient of cubical thermal expansion, delta
6 Corrections appropriate to a vessel with nominal
    capacity of 1000 ml made of glass having a cubical
    thermal coefficient of cubical thermal expansion of
    (10 x 10 to the power -6) per deg C (for example
    borosilicate glass)
7 Corrections appropriate to a vessel with a nominal
    capacity of 1000 ml made of glass having a
    coefficient of cubical thermal expansion of (15 x 10
    to the power -6) per deg C (for example neutral
    glass)
8 Corrections appropriate to a vessel with a nominal
    capacity of 1000 ml made of glass having a
    coefficient of cubical thermal expansion of (25 x 10
    to the power -6) per deg C
9 Corrections appropriate to a vessel with a nominal
    capacity of 1000 ml made of glass having a
    coefficient of cubical thermal expansion of (30 x 10
    to the power -6) per deg C (for example soda-lime
    glass)
10 Additional corrections for air temperature and
    pressure appropriate to a vessel with a nominal
    capacity 1000 ml
