This oaused aslightly inoreased pressure inside the flask and when the inlet tube (F) wasremoved and the cap (E) quickly substituted the dry air moved baok and pre-vented any moisture entering the flask. The flask was then transferred tothe balance and weighed. Ratio of Yttrium Chloride to attempts to determine thisratio have been as yet unsuccessful for reasons not fully understood. Sever-al trials were made by dissolving a weighed sample of anhydrous chloride (us-ually about 3-4 grams) prepared by the method desoribed above, in one literof w
