For the weights A, B, F, A of 1432’324 grains each, log A= 1’325642. Therefore 
the volume of either of them at 0° will be 67*6704. Hence ^;|^=729*227, ^;!L=729•276, 
= 729*3 16, z;jI3 = 729*407. t;(0 = 730*078, and, therefore, — 
v(i5—vl.=0'S02, v(B—v^—Q'7Q‘^, viB—vB = 0'&7\. 
The true weight of C compared with !L, 115 will be larger than its apparent 
weights, by the weights of air displaced by masses of platinum the volumes of which 
at 0° are respectively equal to the volumes of 0*851 gr., 0*802 gr., 0*762 gr., 0*671 gr. 
of water at its maximum density. These are 0*00102 gr., 0*00099 gr., 0*00093 gr., 
0*00081 gr. respectively.
