ure was transmitted to the water andto the mercury in the bath d^ and the mercury rose in the manometer. Bynoting on the manometer the pressures corresponding to each degree of thethermometer, Dulong and Arago were able to make a direct measurementof the tension up to 24 atmospheres, and the… … Fig. 326. at temperatures either below or above 100°. It depends on the principlethat when a liquid boils, the tension of the vapour is equal to the pressureit supports (363). If, therefore, the temperature and the correspondmgpressure are known, the question is solved, and the method merely…
