  • The Densities and Cubical Coefficients of Expansion of the Halogen Salts of Sodium, Potas- Sium, Rubidium and Cesium
    BXPANSION OF THE HALOGEN SALTS OF SODIUM, WC. 259 3. No satisfactory explanation of the influence of the KI on the dBu- sion of iodine, is offered, though several possible explanations are con- sidered. UNIVERSITY,VIRGINIA. [CONTRIBUTIONFROM THE ‘I’.JEFFERSON COOLIDGE,JR., CHEMICALLABORATORY OF HARVARDCOLLEGE.] THE DENSITIES AND CUBICAL COEFFICIENTS OF EXPANSION OF THE HALOGEN SALTS OF SODIUM, POTAS- SIUM, RUBIDIUM AND CESIUM. BY GREGORYPAUL BAXTERAND CURTIS CLAYTON WALLACE. Received November 15. 1915. For purposes of computation in the preceding paper upon “Changes in Volume upon Solution in Water of the Halogen Salts of Alkalis” it was necessary to know the densities of the solid salts at different tempera- tures. Since neither these values nor the coefficients of expansion of the salts have been found with accuracy, the problem of determining the densi- ties over the ‘necessary range in temperature, and thus the coeffiuents of expansion, was undertaken. The method employed was that of displacement of toluene. In order to reduce the effect of the errors of experiment, a very considerable quantity of salt was used. Furthermore, especial pains were taken, first in drying the salt, and second, in freeing it as far as possible from entangled air when immersed in toluene in the pycnometer. The pycnometer itself, instead of being of the ordinary stoppered form for solids, was merely a 25 cc. graduated flask, the neck of which was very much constricted at one point to increase accuracy in adjusting the volume of its contents. The diameter of the constriction was about 2.5 mm. which secured an accuracy in setting of about 0.3 mg.

  • Ornine on the Aiectli Iodides. by ~VILLIAMNORMAN RAE
    View Article Online / Journal Homepage / Table of Contents for this issue 1286 RAE : THE ACTION OF BROMINE ON THE ALKAT,I IODIDES. CX LIV.-The Action of &-ornine on the AIEctli Iodides. By ~VILLIAMNORMAN RAE. INa paper by Jackson and Derby on ferrous iodide (Amer. Chem. J., 1900, 24, 15), mention is made of the action of bromine vapour on solid ammonium iodide; these authors state that the ammonium iodide first turned black, but as the absorption went on it finally became converted into the scarlet ammonium bronio-iodo-bromide, NH,BrIBr. A curve constructed from the increase in weight of the ammonium iodide and the time of exposure to bromine showed that therel was a marked diminution in the speed of absorption after the first atom of bromine had been added, and they were unable to decide whether th4e black intermediate1 product was another compound, NH,BrI, or only a mixture of ammoniuni bromide and free iodine. The present investigation was under- taken in order to settle this point, and also to determine whether the action of bromine on other solid iodides follows a similar course. Ammonium bromo-iodo-bromide, NH,BrIBr, was prepared by dissolving the calculated quantities of ammonium bromide, iodine, and bromine in a small quantity of water; the solution was a deep ruby-red colour, and when left in a desiccator over phosphoric oxide slowly deposited crystals of the salt. A similar result was obtained starting with ammonium iodide and bromine. A specimen was analysed by adding a weighed quantity to a Published on 01 January 1915.
