��1 The hydrates dissolved in 25, 6, and 10 litres of water respectively. The following oxides are taken as more or less hydrated precipitates.
��Conditions of the Calorimetric Experiment.— Alkaline bases are dissolved in two litres of water for each equivalent of base ; for the bases of the alkaline earths a much larger proportion of water is taken. One equivalent of acid is dissolved in the quantity of water denoted in the table for acting on the soluble bases, and in at least four
