Now, my gallant Ned, do you know how many square centimeters you have on your bodily surface?" "I haven't the foggiest notion, Professor Aronnax." "About 17,000." "As many as that?" "Yes, and since the atmosphere's pressure actually weighs slightly more than one kilogram per square centimeter, your 17,000 square centimeters are tolerating 17,568 kilograms at this very moment."
But if 0·187 kilogram of steam at 100° C. can heat 1 kilogram of water through 100 degrees, then 1 kilogram of steam can raise 5·36 kilograms of ice-cold water through 100 degrees, or 536 kilograms through 1 degree, and thus the latent heat of steam is 536 heat units. Effect of Increase of Pressure on the Boiling of Water.
If we take 1 kilogram of water at 0° C. and blow steam from boiling water at 100° C. into it until the water just boils, and then stop and weigh the resulting water, we shall find it amounts to 1·187 kilograms, so that 0·187 kilogram of water which was in the gaseous steam form, and had besides a sensible heat of 100° C., has changed its state to that of liquid water.
Grain, which before the War cost 31 crowns, costs now 500 crowns; corn has passed from 17 to 220 and 250 crowns. A kilogram of rice, which used to cost 70 centimes, can be found now only at 80 crowns. Sugar, coffee and milk are at prices which are absolutely prohibitive. Of the financial situation it is almost useless to speak.
