It is worthy of mention that the diffusion potential between n/10 KCl calomel electrode and the solution to be tested is reduced by interposing the saturated solution of KCl as it is indicated by K on the diagram. For the standardization of the electrode it was first platinized with general precaution; then the hydrogen ion concentration of the mixed solution (7 c. c. of m/15 KH2PO4, 3 c. c. of m/15 Na2 HPO4) 2 was determined at different intervals. After the read- ings became constant there was a difference of volts between the theoretical data and the results obtained.
