The diffusion of gases may be shown by the wellknown experiments illustrated by Figs. 2 and 3. Amedium sized fish globe, a very small fish globe whichwill pass into the larger one, and a piece of bladder,are the requisites for this experiment. The small globe is filled with carbonic acid gas, andthe bladder, previously moistened, is placed looselyover the mouth of the jar and tied so as to render theconnection between the bladder and the globe airtight. more rapidly than the carbonic acid passes outward,the membrane is distended outwardly. It requires alittle time to produce a visible effect. When the smallglobe is filled with hydrogen, and the large one withcarbonic acid, the membrane will be distended inwardas shown in Fig. 8. In this latter case the experimentmay be performed with the least trouble by placing.
