It is shown that Hudleston's equation represents liquid compression data at least as accurately as Tait's equation, and the straight line isotherms obtained are more convenient for the estimation of random experimental errors. The equation may also be used to extrapolate and interpolate measurements over a large P-T region. Revised values for the isothermal compression of mercury from -30 to 150 °C and up to 12 000 kg/cm 2 have been obtained by using the equation to correlate existing measurements with more recent sound-velocity determinations. Some thermodynamic derivatives for mercury are also calculated.
