![marked with the nail wlien cold. Before use the balls must be slightly moistened with water; and if large quantities of gas have to be absorbed, the bullet must be removed after some hours, washed with water, and returned to the absorption tube. The absorption may extend over twelve or eighteen hours. In order to ascertain if it is completed, the potash ball is removed, washed, again introduced, and allowed to remain in contact Avith the gas for about an hour. If no diminution of volume is observed the operation is finished. The following analyses of a mixture of air and carbonic anhydride will serve to show the mode of recording the observa- tions and the methods of calculation required.
