ring vaporisation. If, therefore, a liquid evaporates, and does notreceive from without a quantity of heat equal to that which is expended inproducing the vapour, its temperature sinks, and the cooling is greater inproportion as the evaporation is more rapid. Leslie succeeded in freezing water by… … Fig. 359 Fig. 360 small quantity of water. By exhausting the receiver the water begins toboil (366), and since the vapour is absorbed by the sulphuric acid as fast as it is formed, a rapidevaporation is pro-duced, which quicklyeffects the freezing ofthe water. This experiment is best performed by…
