This melts at 2V C, its heat of liquefactionbeing 364cals. It dissolves in less than lOOpts. of waterwith absorption of heat, in more water with evolution ofheat.—A. G. given off travels through a cooling vessel J, where thesteam is condensed and collects in the cylinder it proceeds through two coke-towers, which serveto retain any organic matter, and lastly into the cylinderS, surrounded by cold water or ice. This cylinder isfastened to the beam of a scale for the purpose of fillingit with any definite weight desired. The coke-towersstand in a vessel which can be filled with warm water inorder to prevent the carbonic acid from being condensedin this part of the apparatus.—S. H. Vn the Law of Solution. 11. le Chatelier. Compt. Rend. 100, 50 and s tin first of these communications, the author deducesfrom tlic principles of thermodynamics a relation between the solubility of salts, their heat of solution and the temperature. From this equation it is shown that thesolubility of a salt which dissolves with absorption ofheat, will increase with the temperature and inversely;whilst the solubility of a salt which dissolves withev
