In some instances the experiment was varied by using a large quantity of phosphorus and allowing the action to continue for two or three hours, then weighing the phosphorus which remained unacted upon. In two instances the carbon dioxide was weighed directly by replacing the wash bottle containing the baryta water by weighed potash bulbs.
I. 6.2272 grams Phosphorus gave .0300 gr BaSO_{ 4} = .0057 grm CO_{ 2} = .0016 gr C = _.026%C._
II. 7.9545 grm Phosphorus gave .0324 gr CO_{ 2} = .0088 gr Carbon = _.111% Carbon_
III. 8.8041 grm Phosphorus gave .0134 gr CO_{ 2} = .00365 gr Carbon = _.042% Carbon_
IV. 9.0650 grm Phosphorus gave .0540 BaSO_{ 4} = .0101 grm CO_{ 2} = .00278 gr C = _.031% C._
V. 16.4633 grm Phosphorus gave .1303 gr BaSO_{ 4} = .0246 gr CO_{ 2} = .0067 C = _.041% C._
VI. 11 grams Phosphorus gave .0929 grams BaSO_{ 4} = .0175 gr CO_{ 2} = .00478 C = _.043% C._
