Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
The principle of the Ostwald method was used in which the gas is agitated with a measured quantity of gas-free liquid and the decrease in volume of solution-saturated gas is measured in a burette over mercury. The pressure was adjusted to yield one atmosphere partial pressure of carbon dioxide. The volume of gas was reduced to 0 °C by the ideal gas law. Experiments were conducted to show that the agitation did not cause super-saturation.
