Diffusion of air through water. if the curve is smooth, it is always hazardous to assume that the true diffu-sion rate has been exhibited within a month. The double-tube apparatus H charged with fresh water and air showedthe diffusions contained in table 22 and fig. 20. 66 THE DIFFUSION OF GASES THROUGH The rate of diffusion appears as 2*0 = or io10k = a value which again approaches the normal result in Chapter II, and affords strong credence that the much more troublesome double-tube apparatus is unnecessary in practice. It is interesting to compare figs. 19 c and 20, which, though obtained with totally different apparatus, show identical thermal discrepancies. The new results obtainedwith apparatus A have alreadybeen discussed. Table 21is a brief summary of thevalues for the diffusion of airthrough water as obtai
