The law of the diffusion of vapour through the air , its influence on the barometric
pressure , and its relations to the other constituents of the atmosphere , are
among the least satisfactorily determined questions in meteorology . Since this ...

The space in the tube above the water is not a true vacuum , but is filled with
aqueous vapour , which presses on the water with a force varying with the
temperature . If the temperature be 32° the column is depressed half an inch ,
