12 DR. EDWARD C. EDGAR ON THE ATOMIC WEIGHT OF CHLORINE. 



Table IV. gives the weights of the palladium bulb and the liquid chlorine bulb, in 

 each experiment, before and after the combustion, together with the corrections for 

 buoyancy and for the unburnt gases. The corrected weights of hydrogen chloride, 

 caught in the steel bomb in Experiments 1, 2, and 4, and condensed in water in 

 Experiments 7 and 8, are also given. In Experiments 3, 5, and 6 the individual 

 weighings of the bomb were so discordant that it was obvious the screw valve 

 had not been closed tightly enough, and that the bomb had been steadily leaking 

 since its removal from the liquid air.
