where denotes the same constant as on page 381. From the evident relations
we obtain
and by substitution of these values in equation (14),

In view of the relations (15), this may be regarded as an equation between the pressure, the temperature, the volume, and the quantities of protochloride of phosphorus and chlorine into which the gas-mixture is resolvable.

It is in this form that we shall apply the equation to the experiments of M. Wurtz, the results of which are exhibited in Table IX. The first column gives the number distinguishing each experiment in the original memoir; the second, the temperature; the third, the observed pressure () of the mixture of PCl5, PCl3, and Cl2, which is the barometric pressure corrected for the small quantity of air remaining in the flask; the fourth, the pressure due to the possible perchloride, found by subtracting the pressure due to the excess of protochloride (this pressure is calculated from the theoretical density of the protochloride) from the total pressure; the fifth, the density of the possible perchloride calculated from its pressure with the temperature and volume. The numbers of these five columns are taken
