Abstract
WHEN determining vapour densities I believe that many, if not most, experimenters go through three processes, viz.: (1) Correct the observed volume to that at N.T.P.; (2) find the mass of hydrogen which would occupy this latter volume; and (3) divide this mass of hydrogen into that of the substance used, whence density d on the hydrogen standard is found.
