Heartburn is often triggered by foods. This is because certain substances irritate the esophagus or weaken the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), which prevents the backward flow of stomach contents that causes reflux. Triggers can include: 1  alcohol. 2  caffeinated products, such as coffee, soda, and tea. 3  chocolate. 4  citrus fruits. 5  garlic. 6  fatty foods. 7  onions.
Testing specific gravity of fuel. Specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance; equivalently, it is the ratio of the mass of a substance to the mass of a reference substance for the same given volume.
If the density of the substance of interest and the reference substance (water) are known in the same units (e.g., both in g/cm3 or lb/ft3), then the specific gravity of the substance is equal to its density divided by that of the reference substance (water =1 g/cm3), hence. Specific Gravity = Density. 3.
