For a pure liquid, despite its low compressibility, the variation of density near a solid surface can be detected and measured. The total volume of a system consisting of solid and pure liquid is different from (usually less than) that calculated assuming a constant liquid density. If the densities of bulk solid ( ) and liquid ( ) are known then an excess volume (usually negative) can be defined as: where is the mass of solid, its volume calculated from the bulk density, is the initial volume of liquid and is the mass of liquid. The excess mass is given by:
