e beincfmeasured in the ordinary way, that of the normal electrode may bededucted and the unknown electromotive force obtained. The electromotive force of the normal electrode is 056 volt, themercury being positive to the solution. Capillary Electrometers.—An alternative method of measuringthe… … Fig. 195, respect to the solution. Now it is found that the surface tension ofthe mercury in contact with the solution depends upon this electro-motive force, and becomes a maximum when this is zero. If, then, thedilference of potential between the mercury and the solution be variedby any means and…
