Pressure of hydrogen = 763.7 + 9.5 − 17.1 | = | 756.1 |
Temperature = 15.70° C.
The oxygen volume and the first hydrogen volume were measured in the afternoon, the second hydrogen volume in the evening. This is why there is such a difference in the temperature and barometric pressure in the latter case.
Volume of residue, 6.5 = 15.3.

These volumes, when reduced to 0° C, and 760 millims. pressure, become—
For the oxygen | 3826.3 × 753.3760.0 × 273.00288.92 | = 3396.4 |
For the„ hydrogen | 3826.3 × 753.6760.0 × 273.00288.97 | = 3397.0 |
For the„ hydrogen„ | 3826.3 × 756.1760.0 × 273.00288.70 | = 3411.5 |
