Abstract
IN the Proceedings, vol. lxxii. p. 204, 1897,2 I have givenparticulars of weighings of nitrous oxide purified by two distinct methods. In the first procedure, solution in water was employed as a means of separating less soluble impurities, and the result was 3.6356 grams. In the second method a process of fractional distillation was employed. Gas drawn from the liquid so prepared gave 3.6362. These numbers may be taken to represent the corrected weight of the gas which fills the globe at 0° C. and at the pressure of the gauge (at 15°), and they correspond to 2.6276 for oxygen.
