The total height of the flasks sliould be IT or 17^ centi-meters, or such that one-half centimeter or more of the neck willprotrude thru the covers (k) of the evaporating chamber in order toprotect the rubber stoppers (r) as much as possible from the actionof the high temperatures. THE ther:mometers. YHiile am^ standard chemical tl^eiTuometer may be utilized, athermometer graduated in degrees from 100° C. to 210° C. has beenfound most convenient. The lOO-clegree mark should^ come just at the top of the rubber stopper in the flask (IT centimeters from the bulb end of the thermom-eter), so that the rapidity of the rise in temperaturecan be watched if desirable after the Avater begins topass over. The total length of such a thermometerneed not be more than 27 or 28 centimeters. The bulbend of the thermometer should extend well in
