not at all adapted for anything of the nature of continuous work, but it furnishes a standard of E.M.F. which when the cell is con¬ structed with the proper precautions can always be reproduced and always relied on. Its E.M.F. is 1 -435 [1 —0-0078 (/— 15)] volts, where t is the temperature… … element is closed by a wire of small resistance its Fig. 797 E.M.F. increases slightly at first, then remains constant for some time, after which it rapidly sinks to half its original amount. In Niaudefs element a zinc cylinder dips in a solution of common salt and surrounds a porous cell, in which…
