Abstract
The gases which the author has succeeded in condensing into the liquid form, are, the sulphurous acid, sulphuretted hydrogen, carbonic acid, euchlorine, nitrous oxide, cyanogen, ammonia, muriatic acid, and chlorine. The process by which they were condensed, consisted in liberating them from certain of their compounds in small glass tubes, hermetically sealed and bent, so that when required, the end might answer the purpose of a receiver, and be occasionally immersed in ice or freezing mixtures. They generally appear as exceedingly limpid, colourless, and mobile fluids, and assume the gaseous form with various degrees of rapidity and violence upon the removal of that pressure by which they had been previously restrained. In this paper Mr. Faraday details the particular method to which he resorted for obtaining each of these liquid bodies, and describes such of their characters as his experiments have hitherto enabled him to determine.
