peri-ments and discoveredthe existence of the critical point. It has already beenremarked in the case of steam, that with rise of temperaturethe saturation pressure rises greatly, and so the volume occu-pied by a gram of saturated vapour becomes less and less(Fig. 38). This is well brought out by… … J4C.C. CRITICAL POINT 93 pressure of the substance at that temperature, the behaviourbeing similar to that previously described for steam. But onaccount of the high pressure involved the specific volume of thesaturated vapour was only 12 c.c. whilst that of the liquid formedwas 2 c.c. But at 2i°-i,…
