J Liquefaction of Gases. Since isomorphic bodies have the same atomic volume, equivalentdivided by density, and oxygen belongs to the group of sulphur, theatomic volume of which is ?22—ID> according to Dumas the density ofsolid, and probably also of liquid oxygen, should be J J=i. Pictet hasverified this by determining that a tube of 46*25 cc. capacity held45*467 grams of liquid oxygen, the slight difference of *8 gram beingprobably due to incomplete filling or slight variation in Cailletets Apparatus.—The hollow steel cylinder A is fastenedto an iron frame by the straps i?, and when filled with water throughthe cup G, a very high pressure may be produced in any vessel withwhich it may be connected, upon turning the large hand-wheel M, thehub of which, revolving in the journal-box jP, forms a nut, by whichthe square-threaded screw of a steel plunger is worked. The flow ofwater is controlled by a screw plug operated by the small hand-wheelO, whereby also the pressure exerted upon gases may be suddenlyrelieved. The water is forced through a small metal tube into thehollow cylinder which is supported by the tablet />, and capable ofwithstanding a pressure of 900 to 1,000 atmospheres, measured by the i88 Liquefaction of Gases. f Am.
