In Figure 24, agreement between experiment and the hole model is excellent in the melt. The open circles correspond to the data for the glass (constant fomation) and liquid. Below Tg, the solid curve for each pressure gives the theoretical values of V corresponding to a constant value of h= l—y=h T (P)), This constraint condition replaces the equilibrium condition (equation 44). The dashed lines represent the equilibrium liquid lines predicted by the theory. The large differences... 

To verify the modelling of the data eolleetion process, calculations of SAT 4, in the entrance window of the XRII was compared to measurements of RNR p oj in stored data as function of tube potential. The images object was a steel cylinder 5-mm) with a glass rod 1-mm) as defect. X-ray spectra were filtered with 0.6-mm copper. Tube current and exposure time were varied so that the signal beside the object. So, was kept constant for all tube potentials. Figure 8 shows measured and simulated SNR oproj, where both point out 100 kV as the tube potential that gives a maximum. Due to overestimation of the noise in calculations the maximum in the simulated values are normalised to the maximum in the measured values. Once the model was verified it was used to calculate optimal choice of filter materials and tube potentials, see figure 9. 

Similar, very detailed studies were made by Ebert [112] on water adsorbed on alumina with similar conclusions. Water adsorbed on zeolites showed a dielectric constant of only 14-21, indicating greatly reduced mobility of the water dipoles [113]. Similar results were found for ammonia adsorbed in Vycor glass [114]. Klier and Zettlemoyer [114a] have reviewed a number of aspects of the molecular structure and dynamics of water at the surface of an inorganic material. 

Five grams of sodium dichromate are dissolved in 5 ml. of water in a 250 ml. beaker 100 ml. of concentrated sulphuric acid are then added slowly with constant stirring. The temperature will rise to 70-80°. The mixture is allowed to cool to about 40° and then transferred to a dry, glass-stoppered bottle. 

Method 2 (from potassium bromide and sulphuric acid). Potassium bromide (240 g.) is dissolved in water (400 ml.) in a litre flask, and the latter is cooled in ice or in a bath of cold water. Concentrated sulphuric acid (180 ml.) is then slowly added. Care must be taken that the temperature does not rise above 75° otherwise a little bromine may be formed. The solution is cooled to room temperature and the potassium bisulphate, which has separated, is removed by flltration through a hardened Alter paper in a Buchner funnel or through a sintered glass funnel. The flltrate is distilled from a litre distilling flask, and the fraction b.p. 124 127° is collected this contains traces of sulphate. Pure constant boiling point hydrobromic acid is obtained by redistillation from a little barium bromide. The yield is about 285 g. or 85 per cent, of the theoretical. 

The complete assembly for carrying out the catalytic decomposition of acids into ketones is shown in Fig. Ill, 72, 1. The main part of the apparatus consists of a device for dropping the acid at constant rate into a combustion tube containing the catalyst (manganous oxide deposited upon pumice) and heated electrically to about 350° the reaction products are condensed by a double surface condenser and coUected in a flask (which may be cooled in ice, if necessary) a glass bubbler at the end of the apparatus indicates the rate of decomposition (evolution of carbon dioxide). The furnace may be a commercial cylindrical furnace, about 70 cm. in length, but it is excellent practice, and certainly very much cheaper, to construct it from simple materials. 

Preparation of silver maleate. Dissolve 65 g. of pure maleic acid (Section 111,143) in the calculated quantity of carefully standardised 3-5N aqueous ammonia solution in a 1-htre beaker and add, whilst stirring mechanically, a solution of 204 g. of silver nitrate in 200 ml. of water. Filter oflf the precipitated silver maleate at the pump, wash it with distilled water, and press well with the back of a large flat glass stopper. Dry in an electric oven at 50-60° to constant weight. The yield of the dry silver salt is 150 g. Store in a vacuum desiccator in the dark. 

Into a 500 ml. round-bottomed flask, fitted with a reflux condenser, place 42 g. of potassium hydroxide pellets and 120 g. (152 ml.) of absolute ethyl alcohol. Heat under reflux for 1 hour. Allow to cool and decant the liquid from the residual solid into another dry 500 ml. flask add 57 g. (45 ml.) of A.R. carbon dtsulphide slowly and with constant shaking. Filter the resulting almost solid mass, after cooling in ice, on a sintered glass funnel at the pump, and wash it with two 25 ml. portions of ether (sp. gr. 0-720), followed by 25 ml. of anhydrous ether. Dry the potassium ethyl xanthate in a vacuum desiccator over silica gel. The yield is 74 g. If desired, it ma be recrystallised from absolute ethyl alcohol, but this is usually unneceasary.
