TABLE 182. jgf 



VAPOR PRESSURE OF SOLUTIONS OF SALTS IN WATER.* 



The first column gives the chemical formula of the salt. The headings of the other columns give the number of 

 gram-molecules of the salt in a liter of water. The numbers in these columns give the lowering of the vapor 

 pressure produced by the salt at the temperature of boiling water under 76 centimeters barometric pressure.
