...During the process, the tube containing the muriate of lime had increased in weight O3744 grain, wnich is equivalent to 0-0416 grain of hydrogen. These are...Carbon 0-7503 Hydrogen 0-0416 Azote 0-1494 Ashes 0-0150 0-9563 Loss 0-0437 1-0000 This loss we must consider as oxygen. Had it been any thing else, it would...

...in dilute sulphuric acid. The volume of this gas being 138-7551 cubic inches, it is easy to see that when the barometer stands at 30 inches, and the thermometer at 60°, the weight of 100 cubic inches of hydrogen gas is 2-136 grains. According to this determination the...

...and this can be proved by means of an accurate and delicate balance. It has been ascertained that, when the Barometer stands at 30 inches, and the Thermometer at 60 degrees, 100 cubical inches weigh about 31 grains. At this calculation, 1000 cubical inches will weigh...

...the earth ; and that its elevation gradually diminishes towards the polar, or coldest regions. Air, when the barometer stands at 30 inches, and the thermometer at 60°, (which, in similar estimates, is always understood when nothing different is mentioned,) is 828 times...

...taken in this work to represent the specific gravity of oxygen gas. A cubic inch of oxygen gas, taken when the barometer stands at 30 inches, and the thermometer at 60° F., weighs 0.3418, or nearly one-third, of a grain. Its atomic measure is one volume. Its atomic weight...

...air and propel it ? 12. Prove that the air presses with a force of 14-71471bs. on each square inch when the barometer stands at 30 inches and the thermometer at 60°, the specific gravity of mercury at that temperature being supposed 13'6. 13. State some of the experiments...

...in order that the specific gravity and atomic weight may coincide. A cubic inch of oxygen gas, taken when the barometer stands at 30 inches, and the thermometer at 60° F., weighs 0-3418, or nearly one-third, of a grain. Its atomic measure when isolated is one volume....

...in order that the specific gravity and atomic weight may coincide. A cubic inch of oxygen gas, taken when the barometer stands at 30 inches, and the thermometer at 60° F., weighs 0-34l8, or nearly one-third, of a grain. Its atomic measure when isolated is one volume....

...The elastic force is equal to 19-479 Ibs. 7. Assuming that 100 cubic inches of air weigh 31 grains when the barometer stands at 30 inches and the thermometer at 60° F., determine the weight of a cubic foot of air when the barometer is at 30-5 inches, and the thermometer...

...and plants. The elements combine in producing upon the surface of the body a variable pressure which, when the barometer stands at 30 inches, and the thermometer at 60 degrees, may be estimated as follows : — Pressure of Nitrogen gag ... 22764 Ibs. Oxygen gas ... 6912...
