. Carnegie Institution of Washington publication. 92 CONDUCTIVITY AND VISCOSITY OF SOLUTIONS The values for pure-water solutions were taken from the work of West and Jones,1 except those for 15°. For this temperature they were calculated by means of the equations for sodium iodide, and At, = + 1 .883£ + .00829*2 for potassium iodide. These equations apply only to the N/8 solutions, every other dilution requiring a different equation. The accuracy with which West and Jones's values fit the curve is worth noting. 10 15 25° Tempe

We may conclude from this, either that the first addition of alcohol to wrater has a much more marked effect on the association of the water than the addition of a little water to the alcohol has on the association of the alcohol, or that comparatively small quantities of alcohol increase the viscosity of water much more markedly than is the case when small quantities of water are added to alcohol; or, again, that there is a sudden change in the hydration of the dissolved substance caused by the addition of the alcohol, whereas water has a far smaller effect on the alcoholation; or, finally, that perhaps all or some of these factors combine to produce the effect.
