Excerpt from New Method for Determining Compressibility

Other trials, with a wider tube and with the bulb in the lower envel ope, diminished the error due to the adhesion of bromine. Thus the percentage change of volume for pressures of 50, 100, and 150 kilo grams per square centimeter respectively were found to be and per cent. For bromine, and and per cent. For mercury respectively. These data lead to the following values of the compressibility of bromine - from 0 to 50 atmospheres, from 50 to 100 atmospheres, and from 100 to 150 atmospheres, The temperature was 17° C. As will be seen later, these values are not far from the true ones; and they are consistent enough to show a steady decrease of compressibility with increasing pressure, which seems to be the universal rule.

Excerpt from New Method for Determining Compressibility

This paper on a "New Method for Determining Compressibility" has been prepared by Professor Theodore W. Richards, Ph. D., Professor of Chemistry in Harvard University, and his assistant, Wilfred N. Stull, S. M. (Iowa University), Edward Austin Fellow of Harvard University. Its publication by the Carnegie Institution is recommended by these chemists: Professors Ira Remsen, of the Johns Hopkins University; F. W. Clarke, of the United States Geological Survey, and Edgar F. Smith, of the John Harrison Laboratory in the University of Pennsylvania.

This investigation was made in the Chemical Laboratory of Harvard College, Cambridge, Massachusetts, and the expense of it was defrayed, in the earlier part, by the Cyrus M. Warren fund of Harvard University, and in the latter part, by the Carnegie Institution of Washington.
