Abstract

A series of measurements with aqueous electrolyte and nonelectrolyte solutions indicates that there is a small systematic difference between the heat capacities per unit volume determined with a Picker flow microcalorimeter and the original prototype. Through various tests and comparisons, it is, concluded that the commercial instrument gives results closer to the true values. Most of the previous data obtained in our laboratory have been corrected and expressed relative to aqueous NaCl at 25°C taken as a standard.
