What's the difference between gasometry and measurement?
Gasometry
Definition:
(n.) The art or practice of measuring gases; also, the science which treats of the nature and properties of these elastic fluids.

Normal values for gasometry in Mexico are scarce and some of the existing ones are erroneous probably due to lack of adequate calibrations and to poor quality control.

Measurement
Definition:
(n.) The act or result of measuring; mensuration; as, measurement is required.
(n.) The extent, size, capacity, amount. or quantity ascertained by measuring; as, its measurement is five acres.
Example Sentences:
