New Standardizing Method.
A new method of standardizing
thermometers between 0 deg. Cent.
and —4.0 deg. Cent. exactly has been
devised by Professor T. W. Richards
and F. GQ. Jackson, and is described
in the “Proceedings” of the American
Academy, and consists in observing
the temperatures recorded for the
freezing point of dilute hydrochloric
acid solutions of known concentra.
tion, The method, says Nature,
should be of special service In stand-
ardizing thermometers used for ae
eurate physicalchemical researches,
particularly in measurements of the
freezing point of dilute solutions.
