Only One Gas Yet to BE Solidihed.
Profs. Moissan and Dewar have
lately succeeded, with the aid OF
liquid hydrogen, in solidifying fuorin,
and they remark that helium is now
the only gas which has not been OBJ
tanned in the solid state. An interest,"
ing result of the experiments was the
demonstration that, although chem
ical activity tends to cease at ex-
tremely low temperatures, yet
f1uorin, which is known to possess
more powerful afinities than any
other element, is capable, even when
reduced to the solid state, of COM
bining with liquid hydrogen. Such a
combination, accompanied with a
violent explosion, was produced when
the solid fluorin and liquid hydrogen
were kept at a temperature of -252.5
degrees Centigrade, equivalent to
1925 degrees Fahrenheit below zero.
