what is least count of a balance? How we find out this? Any
formula for least count of Analytical balance?

Answer Posted / rajashekar reddy.v (dr reddys)

minimum weight you can measured is called least count of
the analytical balance.By weighing subsequent low weights ,
at which level the weight is not deviating from the
standard weight by 0.01% ,that should be considered as
least count.For denver analytical balances it is 20 mg, for
micro balance is 0.01mgand for pan balance it is 2 gram
