Page 177 - ... owing to a continuous evolution of minute hydrogen bubbles which appears to be determined by contact with the liquid. However, the linear dimensions of the charged palladium are altered so considerably that the difference admits of easy measurement, and furnishes the required density by calculation. Palladium in the form of wire is readily charged with hydrogen by evolving that gas upon the surface of the metal in a galvanometer containing dilute sulphuric acid as usual...
Page 178 - The palladium wire had, in consequence, hydrogen carried to its surface for a period of one and a half hour. A longer exposure was found not to add sensibly to the charge of hydrogen acquired by the wire. The wire was again measured and the increase in length noted. Finally the wire, being dried with a cloth, was divided at the marks, and the charged portion heated in a long narrow glass tube kept vacuous by a Sprengel aspirator. The whole occluded hydrogen was thus collected and measured; its volume...
Page 178 - The diameter of the wire was 0462 millimetre ; its specific gravity was 12-38, as determined with care. The wire was twisted into a loop at each end, and the mark made near each loop. The loops were varnished, so as to limit absorption of gas by the wire to the measured length between the two marks. To straighten the wire, one loop was fixed, and the other connected with a string passing over a pulley and loaded with 1-5 kilogramme, a weight sufficient to straighten the wire without occasioning any...
