what is difference between moisture contents and water contents ?..

Answer / haran

moiture content and water content are similar wards but
contently both separeted by prsence H2O in sample
moiture content : less than 1.0 % H2O in sample
for calculation KF-solution stadised by using DST (di
sodium tartate Dihydrate )
water content: sample with more than 1.0% of H2O for
calculation purpose KF-solution stadised by using pure water
(mill-pore water)
and always DST factor less then that water factor.for ex
DST kf factor was Around 5.0-5.2 and water kf factor was
around 5.1-5.3 (+or- 0.4)

Answer / jörgen held

The moisture content of a solid is expressed as the quantity of water per unit mass of the dry solid.
The water content is expressed as the quantity of water per unit mass of the wet solid.
Take biomass as an example. If 1 kg wet biomass consists of 0.7 kg biomass and 0.3 kg of water the moisture content is 0.3/0.7 = 0.42857 but the water content is 0.3.
