. Laboratory exercises in elementary physics. re are not a sufficient number of gas taps for a sec-tion, the arrangement as shown in Fig. 104 may be useful.

In this way one gas tap can bemade to serve from two to four independent regulation is desired,the tube leading to each burner may beprovided with a screw clamp t or somesimilar device. Glass tubing connectedwith short pieces of rubber tubing, willserve well for temporary piping. Wherea branch tap is to be led off, a smallbottle provided with a glass tube may beused. By such devices as these, if thelaboratory contain but one or two gastaps, it is not a difficult matter to provide enough separateburners. * For arrangement for keeping mercury clean and dry see Sut-tons Volumetric,Analysis, p. 413. f See Eimer & Amends Catalogue, page Fig. 104. 212 APPENDIX A.
