Abstract

The mean free paths have been obtained for hydrogen, helium, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, methane, ethane, propane, butane and isobutane through mercury vapor. The decrease in intensity is observed as a beam of the gas passes through the vapor, any deviation as great as a half degree removing the molecules from the beam. The free paths measured in this way are, as is expected, several times smaller than the values determined from viscosity data.
