Here is some data from the Dictionary of Chemical Solubilities which I highly recommend to anyone interested in chemistry.
Sat. solution contains
%Cu(NO3)2 @ temperature C= spgr
60.01@25C= 1.646 spgr (5.26M)
60.44@30C=1.693 spgr
61.51@40C=1.714 spgr
62.62 @50C
64.17@60C=1.766 spgr
65.79@70C=
67.51@80C=1.8312 spgr (6.59M)
77.59 @114.5 (mpt)
My own testing of recycling real world copper nitrate solutions are typically in the range of 1.7 g/ml spgr when saturated which is closely in line with the Dictionary referenced table at 25C.
My procedure for testing spgr involves a 0.01 accuracy gram scale, a clean and dry all plastic 0.1ml x 10ml medicine syringe, and a room temperature sample of the liquid to test. Tare the scale with the syringe empty on it and record syringe mass. Draw in exactly 5ml without any bubbles and record the mass of the liquid only. Divide the liquid mass by 5ml.
