trolled by means of the needle valve so as to maintain a zero temperature difference between the container and the jacket as indicated by a difference thermocouple. The values determined are 33.9 calories per gram (4100 calories per mole) at 23" C., and 32.8 calories per gram (3960 calories per mole) at 28" C., with an estimated accuracy of 2 or 3 per cent. Ratio of Specific Heats of the Vapor

The specific-heat ratio C,/C. = y, of dichlorodifluoromethane vapor was measured a t 25" C., and atmospheric pressure by the Kundt method. The velocity of sound in the vapor relative to that in air was measured in a Pyrex tube, 4.3 cm. in diameter and 135 cm. long, a t a frequency of approximately 2700 cycles per second. The sound waves were produced by stroking a clamped brass rod with a cloth moistened with methanol and were transmitted t o the air or vapor by means of a thin brass disk mounted on the end of the rod, just inside the end of the tube. Resonance was obtained by moving a similar disk in the other end of the tube; the positions of the nodes were indicated by cork dust. Displacement of the heavy vapor by air was prevented by tying thin sheet rubber over the ends of the horizontal tube and by maintaining a slow stream of vapor through the tube with upward exit. The measured velocity ratio relative to air was 1:2.298. Several other measurements of somewhat less accuracy gave values for the ratio within less than 0.5 per cent of this figure.

I n particular, reduction of the tube diameter from 4.3 to 2.0 cm. did not affect the result within the limit of error of individual determinations; therefore no tube correction was applied. The velocity of sound in air a t 25" C. was calculated from the equation in the International Critical Tables ( 3 ) , with a slight correction for 3 mm. partial pressure of water vapor as 34,640 cm. per second. The velocity in the dichlorodifluoromethane was therefore 15,073 cm. per second. The value of y was then determined as 1.139 * 0.005 by substituting the proper values in the following form of the Laplace equation (2):

Substituting simultaneous values of V and T at 1 atmosphere and combining the values of C, - C, so obtained with C, from Equation 7, a series of values for C, a t 1 atmosphere were obtained, which were then accurately fitted by means of the linear equation, C, = 6.92

As noted above, C, is required to be independent of volume; hence Equation 13 is applicable a t all pressures and temperatures within the range of validity of Equations 7 and 9. Values of C, - C, were than calculated for a series of temperatures and pressures, and combined with values of C, from Equation 13 to give representative values of c, over the entire field. These are plotted in Figure 2. The general form of the C, curves is quite similar to that for other vapors. ENTROPY AND HEAT COXTENT-FOr purposes of calculation it is convenient to consider the changes of state as combinations of changes along an isometric, along an isotherm, and across the saturation line. The change in entropy along an isometric of the vapor is found by substituting C, from Equation 13 into the thermodynamic expression, dS. = C,dT/T, and integrating:

The probable error in the calculated values of L is about 2 per cent. A check on the specific heats of the vapor a t low pressures is afforded by the determination of y = C,/C, by a velocity of sound method (d). The measured value was 1.139 * 0.005 a t 25" C. and 1 atmosphere; from Equations 7 and 13, y = 1.138. The network contains a complete set of values for the heat content of the liquid along the saturation line, and hence of its specific heat, for the range from -40" to 50" C. The calculation is an indirect one, involving a considerable part of the fundamental data. The values thus obtained can be compared with the experimental specific heats of the liquid, thus obtaining the best over-all check on the network now available. (Entropy instead of heat content could be used for this check with identical results.) The methods outlined in the preceding section were applied to the calculation of the heat content of the liquid along the saturation line, starting from liquid a t -40" C., vaporizingit a t that temperature, heating the vapor a t constant volume up to the required temperature, and then compressing it isothermally and condensing it. Values of the heat content of the liquid were thus found for successive points. The change in heat content per degree along Figure 3-Straight Line Repthe saturation line is called C,, resenting Values of Cp of Liquid disregarding the very small according to Network A and B are experimental points. change of heat content with pressure. The values of C, ihus obtained lie well on a straight line (Figure 3), but do not agree well with the experimental values, the difference being about 8 per cent. However, considered as a check on the network, the agreement is quite satisfactory, the probable error in the direct measurement of C, (4 per cent) and in Equation 3 for the latent heat (2 per cent) being more than sufficient to account for the deviations. There is no reason to believe that the thermal properties of the vapor are in error to any great extent. The indicated accuracy of the calculated C, of the liquid is ample for applications involving vaporization or condensation, as the specific-heat term is small compared with the latent heat. For instance, perhaps the most important calculation involving C, of the liquid is that of net refrigerating effect. An 8 per cent error in C, would cause a 3 per cent error in the typical case, with a good possibility that this error is largely compensated by a corresponding error in L.
