Scotland; the electro-deposition OF pure
copper for electric wires and cables, cleo

these are instances where decomposition
of a compound by the electric current has
led to important Industrial results. At
present soda and chlorine are being manu-
factured by the electrolysis of salt solu-
ton contained in rocking trays, one of the
electrodes being mercury. by the Castner-
Kellner process. This manufacture is be-
ing carried on at Niagara. as well as in
England. But electricity as a heating

though none the less real. The use OF
electricity as heating agent has re-
ceived new applications. Phosphorus is
now made by distilling a mixture Of
phosphates of lime and alumnina with
coke: a new polishing agent has been
found in "carborundum,' compound OF
carbon and silicon. produced by heating
in an electric furnace a mixture of sad
and coke; and cyanide of potassium. al
most Indispensable for the extraction of
gold from ores poor in gold, is now manu-
factured by heating mixture of carbon
and carbonate of barium in an electric
furnace in a current of carhesi moroxide.
These are hut some of the instances in
which electricity has been adopted as
an agent in effecting chemical changes.
and it may be confidently predicted that
the earlier years of the twentieth CEN
tury will witness a great development in
this direction 1t may be pointed out
that the later developments CT indus

to the growth of chemical Theory. and 1t

whether In the tissues of the body, caus-

of favored alcohol from sugar. or in the
manufacture of butter and cheese. or in
preparing the land for the reception of
t. Hoff the most important advance of
recent times in the region of physical
chemistry. 1t had been observed by
Raoult. professor at Grenoble. that the
| freezing point of a solvent as a general
rule is lowered TO the same extent if there
be dissolved in ii quantities of substances,
proportional to their molecular weights.
Thus supposing 1.S0 grammes of grape
sugar be dissolved in 100 grammes of
water and the solution cooled below 0 de-
grees with constant stirring. ice separates
suddenly in thin spicules. and the tempera-
ture rises TO -e.lS5 degrees. II S.i2 grammes
of cane sugar be similarly dissolved in 100
grammes of water, the freezing point OF
the solution Is again -91S5 degrees. Now,
1.S0 and 3.42 are respectively the hundredth
part of the molecular weights OF grape
sugar (Cc H.. % and cane u ar Gre He On.
Similarly, Raoult found that quanti-
ties proportional to molecular weights
dissolved in solvent depress the va
por pressure of that solvent equally, or
what comes to the same thing, raise its
boiling point by an equal number of de-
grees. But ordinary salts, such as sodium
chloride. potassium nitrate, etc, dissolved
in water, give too great depression of
the freezing point and too high boiling
point. Next. 1t had been observed by
botanists. Devries, Pfeffer and Others who
had examined the ascent of sap in plants,
that if a vessel of unglazed porcelain, so
treated as to cause film of cupric ferro-
cyanide "a Shiny red compound to deposit
in the pores of its walls, be filled with a
weak tabout / per cent? solution of sugar
or similar substance, and plunged in ves-
sci of pure water, water entered through
the pores. BY attaching a monometer TO
the porous vessel the pressure eXerted by
the entering water could be measured.
Such pressure was termed ''osmotic pres
sure" referring to the 'osmosis, or pas
sage through the walls of the vessel. Such
prepared walls are permeable freely to
water, but not to sugar or similar bodies.
Van t Hoff pointed out that the total
pressure registered is proportional to the
amount of substance in solution, and that
it is proportional to the absolute tempera-
ture, and he showed, besides, that the pres
sure exefted by the sugar molecules is the
same as that which would be exerted at
the same temperature were an equal
number of molecules of hydrogen to &C.
cupy the same volume as the sugar solu-
tien. This may be expressed by stating
that when in dilute solution sugar mole
cules behave saif they We're present in

process, finds a simple explanation. The
course of ordinary chemical reactions is
also readily realized when viewed in the
light of this theory. Take. for example.
the ordinary equation:
Az NO.. Az r Ma aCl. Ag Ag Cl + Ma NO. Aq
/. E.. solutions of silver nitrate and So
dium chloride give a precipitate cf silver
chloride. leaving sodium nitrate in solu-
ton. BY the new views, such an equa-
ton must be written:
Ag. Az r No Az r Ma. Aq r CT. Aq * Ag CT +
Ma Az + No.. Aq.
The compound. silver chloride being in
soluble in water, is formed by the union
of the ions Ag and Cly and their con-
sequent discharge. forming an electrically
neutral compound: while the sodium ions.
charged positively together with the
N,,a ions negatively charged. remain in So
luton.
One more application of the principle
may be given. Many observers, Andrews.
Favre. and Silbermann. but especially Ju-
lius Thomson. of Copenhagen, and NJ
Berthelct. of Paris, have devoted much
labor and time to the measurement of
the heat evolved during chemical reac-
ticns. Now. while very different amounts
of heat are evolved when chlorine, bro
mine, or iodine combine respectively with
sodium, or potassium. the number of heat
units evolved on neutralizing sodium or
potassium hydroxide with hydrochloric,
hydrobromic, hydriodic, or nitric acids is
always about 13,509. How can this fact be
explained? 1t finds its explanation as
follows: These acids and bases are ionized
in solution as shown in the equation:
d. Aq + CT, Az r Ma, Aq + OH. Aq = II. OH r
Ma Az r CT Aq.
Water is the only compound formed, and
it is produced by the union of the hydro
gen-ion originally belonging to the acid.
a1d the OH, or hydroxyl-ion, originally
belonging to the base. No further change
has occurred; hence the uniform evolu-
ton of heat by the interaction of equiva-
lent quantities of these acids and bases.
1t now remains to give short account
of the greatest generaliza ton which has
as yet been made in chemistry; ii has been
termed the periodic arrangement of the
elements.
In 1864 Newlands, of London, and Lothar
Meyer, late of Tubingen, found that by
arranging the elements in the order of
their atomic weights. certain regularities
We're to be observed between each ele-
ment, and in general the eighth in success

merical value. Such similar elements
formed groups or quantities; while the
elements separating them belong to
