Some low-pressure measurements of the isothermals of xenon between 0 and 40° C and the normal density of the gas

Abstract
Taking pure nitrogen as standard the deviations of xenon from the gas laws have been measured at pressures below atmospheric and at temperatures between 0 and 40° C. The density of the gas has been determined in terms of nitrogen using the microbalance technique. Combination of the data enables the density of xenon to be calculated accurately at any temperature and pressure within the limits studied and furnishes a value for the molecular weight in close agreement with that based on the mass spectrograph.
