Liquid droplet volume
Liquid droplet volume
(OP)
Not sure if this is the right place for this question but here goes.
If a droplet of liquid (e.g. water or milk) is placed on a clean piece of glass, does anyone know the relationship between the diameter of droplet on the glass and the volume of the liquid.
I need to estimate quite accurately (within say 3%) the volume where the volume can be as large as 100 microlitres and as small as 5 microlitres.
Obviously the temperature and characteristics of the fluid will be known.

OR
aspirate it into a capillary and compute the volume there.
