ed. The increase of weight of thissponge obviously represents the ice whichhas been converted into water.Now, since one pound of ice at 0° in melting to water at 0° absorbs 80thermal units, P pounds absorbs 80 P units. On the other hand this cjuan-tity of heat is equal to the heat given out by the… … Fig. 398. It is difficult to obtain blocks of ice as large and pure as those used by Black in his experiments, and Lavoisier and Laplace replaced the block of^^__ ice by a more complicated apparatus which is calledthe ice calorimeter.
