BRIEF PAPERSsystem is completely ifiled. The apparatus is now ready to be placed in an accurately controlled thermostat. Observations and readings of the height of the meniscus in the capillary will enable the operator to determine when the system has reached thermal equilibrium. The apparatus is tilted sufficiently to permit the weight to fall away from the mouth of the lower chamber, thus allowing the sample to come into contact with the water. Volume changes can now be recorded.-G.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
