Solubility in absolute alcohol. The solubilities of the acids inabsolute alcohol (at ° C sp. gr. ) at varyingtemperatures were carefully determined. The alcohol was satur-ated at a few degrees above that at which the observation was tobe made and kept at the temperature of observation for from so. 0° J° JO W £6° 40° d6 40 Temperature. 440 Original Communications: Eighth International [vol. 5 to 6 hours; about 10 of the clear supernatant solution weredrawn off into the weighing bottle, weighed, the alcohol evapor-ated and the residual acid dried to constant weight in an atmos-phere of carbon dioxide. The results are stated in grammes ofacid dissolved in 100 grammes of alcohol. All determinationswere made in duplicate and gave concordant results. The experimental data from which the solubility curves ofPalmitic and Stearic acids in the above diagram were plotted areas follows:— Palmitic acid Stearic acid Temperature Grms. per 100 grms. grms. per 100 grms. alcohol alcohol 0°C ° C .773 ° C . ° C The determinations from which the solubility curve of Margaricacid is drawn
