The crystals of quininechromate are then filtered and washed. The filtrate iswanned on the water-bath with sodium hydrate for some. Fig. 2. Fig. 3. Pure caustic soda ami zinc may he heated in it for hours,and even when frothing, bumping, or spirting occurs, nocaustic is carried over. Attention must be paid tothe following points : Caustic soda, when not purifiedby solution in alcohol frequently contains nitrite-, whichyield ammonia when heated with zinc. If mercury isemployed, potassium sulphide must be added to thetic alkali in order to decompose mercury-ammoniumcompounds. For lgrni. of mercury lOcc. of a20 per centsolution of potassium sulphide are required.
