some hundred times less space than they doin ordinary circumstances. In most cases, however, there is a limit beyondwhich, when the pressure is increased, they cease to exist as gases andbecome liquefied. The compressibility of solids is much less than that of gases, and is foundin all degrees.… … Fig. 5 12 On Matter, Force, and Motion [19- is, in most cases, a limit beyond which, when the pressure is increased, bodiesare fractured or reduced to powder. The compressibihty of Hquids is so small as to have remained for a longtime undetected ; it may, however, be proved by experiment, as will…
