Formic acid as a solvent

Gropp measured the conductivity of liquid and frozen soln. of lithium, sodium, and potassium chlorides. F. Ratig studied the electro-chemical action—vide alkali chlorates. The electrical conductivity of soln. of lithium chloride in several non-aqueous solvents has been investigated. Formic acid as a solvent exerts an ionizing power of the same order of magnitude as water in acetic acid, the lithium chloride seems to be partially associated to double molecules, > and in some solvent,...
