都默士法(Dumas method)求分子量的實驗步驟中,將錐形瓶體積加大,可得較佳之結果。但是對揮發性高,分子量低的化合物,結果誤差甚大,經由蒸氣壓之修正即達誤差要求範圍內。本文將討論實驗之改進和誤差產生之來源且修正之,並以數據來證實。
In the experiment of molecular weight determination by Dumas method, the experimental results can be improved by using a larger Erlenmeyer flask so that the weight of condensed liquid can have three significant figures. Except for CCI_4 and CHCI_3, the weight of the replaced air must be corrected in order to have acceptable molecular weight.
