The otherform has been prepared by the author by coolingfreshly distilled sulphur trioxide with ice water. Bythis means, large, shining, transparent prismatic crys-tals of the oxide are obtained. This form melts belowordinary temperatures, while the common asbestos-like form has no well defined melting point, passing,when heated directly, from the solid to the gaseousstate. The differences between the various forms ofthis substance are supposed to be due to differentstages of aggregation in the molecule.
