staiit, the remainder of the curve (I1 or 111) clearly will not justify the statement that the mass-action law is obeyed by this salt when r is obtaiped from freezing-point data. With cesium nitrate, therefore, as with the other strong electrolytes, the freezing point method cannot be relied upon to give correct values for 7, for t h e validity of the mass-action law is implicitly assumed whenever r is calculated by this method. 11.

Summary.

I . Tbe freezing point lowerings, densities, relative viscosities, and equivalent conductances of solutions of cesium nitrate, potassium chloride, and lithium chloride a t o o have been investigated and a complete set of these data are given in Tables V, VI, and VII. The data extend to normal solutions in the case of potassiun and lithium chlorides and to o 5 normal in the case of cesium nitrate. 2 . The cryohydric point for cesium nitrate is -I ,254’. 3. When the freezing-point curvc s (Fig. 2 , mole fraction of solute plotted against freezing-point lowering) for the three salts are compared with the curve of the “normal solute,” potassium chloride is found to agiee exactly up to about o 5 normal, lithium chloride deviates decidedly in the direction of hydration while cesium nitrate deviates decidedly in the opposit direction. The conclusion is drawn that deviation from the behavior of a “ normal solute” (an unhydrated non-electrolyte) cannot serve as a basis for the calculation of the degree of hydration of an electrolyte. Another method for making this calculation is outlined and, as a provisional result, about 9 molecdes of water are f o m d to be in combinatior! with one of KC1 and about ;S with one of LiCl in a half normal solution of the electrolyte. 4. The freezing-point data for cesium nitrate are compared with the data of Biltz and his conclusion, that this salt obeys the Mass Action Law, is only partially substantiated. URBANA.ILL

definition of normal molecular weight in the liquid state;’ (2) the further comparison of the surface tension and capillary-constant values calculated from the results of the Morgan drop weight apparatus2 with those found by other observers from measurements of capillary rise; and (3) to supply additional data for a later quantitative study of the relationship existing between the drop weight, or the values derived from it, and the other physical and chemical properties of the liquid. For convenience, and to avoid unnecessary loss of time in case of accident, two pieces of. apparatus, with tips of different diameters, were employed, but i t was not necessary in any case to complete the study of any liquid on one tip after having started i t with the other. If an accident had happened, however, this would have been possible, as has already been brought out in a previous paper,3 and just as it is possible to calculate values of t,, or of the surface tension, or the capillary constant, from the results on one tip, which would be identical (within the limits of error) with those obtained by a similar calculation from the results with the same liquid a t the same temperature on another tip. Thus for the same liquid, a t the same temperature (to) we would have for the two tips the relationships w’(M/d)* = k~(t,-to-6) and w”(M/d)%= kk(tc-to-6), from which i t is evident, since a t the same temperature for the same liquid, M, d , t,, and to are identical in the two equations, that w’ : w” . : k k : k k , the weight of a drop of liquid from one tip i s related to that of tke same liquid, at the same temperature, from another tip,as are the k , values of the two tips. By similar reasoning i t can be shown that the k , values themselves of the two tips are related as the respective drop weights of benzene falling from them a t the same temperature of observation (to), for then we would have w; (78 / d ) 8 = kk (288 .5-to-6) and wk(78 / d )3 = k; (288 .5-to-6) which would reduce to , ” w, : wB : : k; : h i .

And in the same way the surface tension values can be calculated from the drop weight, for then we would have, for the same liqwid at the same temperature, y ( M / d ) ' = K,(tc-t0-6) and w(Mjd)g = kB(tc-t0-6) , where M, d , t, and to are the same and consequently y : w ::K, :kB 5. e . , T = w X KBlkB, y in dynes and w in milligrams, being values a t identical temperatures. Here again K, : k , : : rB: wB, where yB and w, are the respective values for benzene a t the same temperature of observation (to), for y, (78/ d )3 = K , ( 288.5-to-6) and wB(78/d)3= k,(288.5--t0-6), the values of to and d being identical, so that yB : wB : : K, : k,. Since no general relationship like the above holds for the capillary constavt, a3, the relationship between the drop volume (i. e., drop weight a t t,/density a t to) and the capillary constant can be found only by a direct comparison of individual results a t various temperatmes, and then finding the mean of the constant by which the drop volume must be multiplied to give the observed capillary constant. I n a previous paper' i t was shown that for a tip giving a value of k, = 2.3502, a2 ( = height of ascension; times radius of bore) for benzene as found a t a number of temperatures by four of the best modern workers with the capillary rise method can be obtained from the drop weight from that tip by aid of the equation ai = 0.1837 w;ld,, so that for any new tip, since the drop weight is proportional to the normal (benzene) constant uf the tip, for , n wt : wt: : kk : k k , i. e . , W; = k k / k ; w ; , we have for a n y liquid from any tip a: = 0.1837 X 2.35oz/kk X wild, where kk and wz are the values for the new tip. The benzene values for the two tips employed in this research are given in the table below, the mean value of w from several determinations '.Morgan and McAfee, THISJOURNAL, 33, 1275-1290 (1911).

The striking thing about these results is that while the Ramsay and Shields values differ widely for 7, they are in good agreement with the others as far as concerns a2. This, of course, is due to the fact that Ramsay and Shields used the quite different densities of Kopp, nhich affect the results r = x h x d x Y , while the a2 values are simply the product of the height and the radius.

Just as with nitrobenzene, the agreement in the a2 values here is better than that of the y values. It must be remembered again in this connection that the surface tensions from capillary rise are dependent upon the density, and the various observers have not all used the same values while the y value from drop weight is independent of density, except that of benzene, for i t is from the y values of that only that the constant for the transformation of w into. y is found. The a 2 values, on the other hand, are dependent, when found from drop weight, upon the density, while those from capillary rise are directly observed. The better agreement of the u 2 values, then, is a proof that the densities we have employed (Thorpe’s) are the correct ones, for they transform directly observed drop n eight results into indirect values agreeing with the directly observed capillary rise, or would transform directly observed capillary rise values into calculated surface tensions agreeing with those found directly from directly observed drop weights.

Summary. I. On the basis of the new definition of normal molecular weight in the liquid state, the finding of a calculated value of t, independent of the temperature of observation (to) in the equation w(M/d)s = k,(t,to- 6), where k , is found from the same equation for benzene a t all temperatures when its observed critical point, 288.5 O , is used as t,, it is shown that methyl hexyl ketone, benzyl cyanide, benzaldehyde, piperidine, diisoamyl, isoamyl acetate, and nitrobenzene are perfectly normal, i. e . , nonassociated, the calculated 1, remaining constant within the limits of error. Methyl ethyl ketone, diethyl ketone, propyl alcohol, propionitrile, and acetone on the other hand are abnormal, 2. e., associated, for the values of t, calculated for them increase with increased temperature of observation. 11. The values of surface tension in dynes, y, and of the capillary constant az,calculated respectively from the drop weights and the drop volumes, are found to agree with the values observed from capillary rise even better than these do when found by different observers, for in most cases where comparison is possible, the values from the drop weight method lie between those found by the investigators on capillary rise. 111. Equations giving the variation of the surface tension y and the capillary const. u2, as found from the drop weight, are given for all the above liquids, that for r being especially important for i t is independent of any knowledge of the density of the liquid, a cause of variation, all too often encountered in the results by the capillary rise method. The values of a2, on the other hand, are here dependent upon the density, but as great care has been taken in the selection of the observed values, those of Thorpe or Young being used when possible, i t is thought that great stress may also be laid upon them.
