temperature and pressure. The quotient, obtained by dividingthe weight of the vapour by that of the air, gives the required density of thevapour. Let^ be the weight of the vapour in grains, v its volume in cubic inches,and / its temperature : if H be the height of the barometer in millimetres, andh… … Fig. 381 o-3i7(H—/^)(I + o/) 760 grams since i cubic inch of air weighs 31 grains.
