Abstract

On the Motion of a Sphere in a Viscous Fluid.519 lines, runs down to the right of the 3-2 (1"85) line, bending lowards the line.Loomis's lies between the 3-2 and 6-4 lines.A mean curve would be just to the right of the 3-2 line, and might readily run out at the 3-2 (i"85) intersection.This would indicate single molecules in dilute solutions dissociating into two ions, an early occurrence of doubling of molecules, and steady increase in the extent of association as dilution diminished, the double molecules formed dissociating into 4, 3, or 2 ions, but not into more.Although the coefficients with which the curves are plotted are doubtful, the curves are so nearly parallel to the axis of coefficients, that even a considerable error in their determination would not affect the above result.
