. Carnegie Institution of Washington publication. 5° INFRA-RED TRANSMISSION SPECTRA. Alum Solution. (Saturated solutions at o° C.; cell i cm. thick; fig. 32.) In fig. 32 are given the transmission spectra of water (0-0-0-0) and of solutions of the alums of potassium (x-x-x), ammonium (••_•), and of ammonium-iron. The curves are due to E. F. Nichols1 and are in- cluded here because of their bearing upon the present data. The trans- mission curves of the solutions of potassium and of ammonium alum are identical with that of water.

The transmission curve of a clear plate of alum 4 mm. in thickness is shown in curve a, fig. 33. Borax and Potassium Permanganate. (Cell 1 cm. thick; glass walls; fig. 33.) In fig. 33 are given the transmission curves b of borax (Na2Br407) and curve d of potassium permanganate (KMnOJ. The latter solution was not saturated. The results show that there is no increased absorption of the solution over that of pure water, except in permanganate, which, of course, is almost opaque to the visible. Lanthanum Nitrate (LaNOs); Didymium Nitrate [Pr,Nd(NC>3);i]; Sulphuric Acid (H2S04); Liquid Glass (NaiSiOs). (Cell 1 cm. Concentration of nitrates unknown. Fig. 34.) In fig. 34 are given the transmission curves, a of sulphuric acid, b of lanthanum nitrate (solution), c of didymium nitrate (solution), and d of 1 E. F. Nichols: Phys.
