X. Appendix to Mr. William Henry's, on the quantity of gases absorbed by water, at different, under different pressures

Abstract

Since my Paper was printed, I have found that the numbers assigned in it, as indicating the quantities taken up by water, of some of the more absorbable, and of all the less absorbable gases, are rather below the truth. The accuracy of these numbers I was led to doubt, by a suspicion that due attention had not always been paid, in my former experiments, to the quality of the unabsorbed residuum.
