Science / Chemistry / Baumé: (, be?°B?©, ?°B) A, Be scale related to specific gravities, devised by the French chemist Antoine Baum?© for marking hydrometers. At 60?°F, specific gravity can be calculated from degrees Baum?© by the following formulas: liquids lighter than water: sp. Gr. = 140/(?°B?© + 130) liquids heavier than water: sp. Gr. = 145/(145 - ?°B?©)
