The apparatus represented in Figuie 26 may be used for pre-paring nitrogen by passing airover red-hot copper. A is a Utube filled with calcic chloride,B is a straight tube filled withfine, bright copper filings, andC is a large-mouthed bottleused as a gas holder, one ofits tubes passing through thecork, the other passing to thebottom of the bottle ; D is apiece of rubber tubing attach-ed to the latter of these tubesin order to convert it into a syphon, and draw off the water from the bottle. E is a spring clipwhich may be kept slightly open by putting a small wedge in starting the experiment, the bottle must be full of water. Whenthe copper has been made red-hot, the syphon must be made to actvery slowly by regulating the clip, and as the water flows out of thebottle, air is drawn through the U tube and passes over the red-hotcopper. The nitrogen is collected in the bottle. At what stage inthis experiment would air begin to pass out of the
