Salt pumps, in aqueous solution, work according to this principle poly-electrolyte is added to a cell and the salt is driven out into the other one. After this, it is easy to get rid of the polyelectrolyte. 

Dirt (high-molecular-weight molecules, microorganisms, dust, salt, pump oil ( ), undis.solved matrix components, silica gel etc.). This great unknown plugs or covers the most vulnerable areas frits (I and 2 above), injection needles (4), stationary phase (1, 2, 4, 5), detection cell (3) etc. 

I he principles used in the design of pumps for normal liquids are applicable to the hydraulic design of a molten-salt pump. Experiments have sho n that the cavitation performance of molten-salt pumps can be predicted from tests made with water at room temperature. In addition to stresses induced by normal thermal effects, stresses due to radiation must be taken into account in all phases of design. 

Collidine 2i5 d carboxylic acid. Boil a mixture of 5 g. of the ester (II) and 50 ml. of 15% ethanolic potash under reflux for 30 minutes. The dipotassium salt crystallises during the boiling and during the subsequent cooling. Filter off the potassium salt at the pump and wash it with a small quantity of ethanol. Dilute the filtrate with about an equal volume of ether to precipitate a further small crop of the salt. Yield of combined crops 4 5 g. from 5 g. of the estei (I). 

Dissolve 13 g. of sodium in 30 ml. of absolute ethanol in a 250 ml. flask carrying a reflux condenser, then add 10 g. (9 5 ml.) of redistilled ethyl malonate, and place the flask on a boiling water-bath. Without delay, add a solution of 5 3 g. of thiourea in a minimum of boiling absolute ethanol (about 100 ml.). The sodium salt of thiobarbituric acid rapidly begins to separate. Fit the water-condenser with a calcium chloride guard-tube (Fig. 61, p. 105), and boil the mixture on the water-bath for 1 hour. Cool the mixture, filter off the sodium salt at the pump and wash it with a small quantity of cold acetone. Dissolve the salt in warm water and liberate the acid by the addition of 30 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid diluted with 30 ml. of water. Cool the mixture, filter off the thiobarbituric acid, and recrystallise it from hot water. Colourless crystals, m.p. 245 with decomposition (immersed at 230°). Yield, 3 5 -4 0 g. 

Benzylthiouronium salts. Add 0 5 g. of sulphanilic acid to 10 ml. of water and 5 ml. of 10% NaOH solution, zndgently warm the shaken mixture until a clear solution is obtained. Cool, add 1 drop of phenol-phthalein solution, and then add dilute HCl dropwise with shaking until the pink colour is just discharged. Now add very dilute NaOH solution until the pink colour yt/rZ returns. Cool and add with shaking a solution of 0-5 g. of benzylthiouronium chloride in 5 ml. of water. The thiouronium salt rapidly separates filter at the pump, wash with water, drain and recrystallise from ethanol. Colourless crystals, m.p. 185°. (M.ps., p. 548.)... 

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. 

Saccharic acid. Use the filtrate A) from the above oxidation of lactose or, alternatively, employ the product obtained by evaporating 10 g. of glucose with 100 ml. of nitric acid, sp. gr. 1 15, until a syrupy residue remains and then dissolving in 30 ml. of water. Exactly neutralise at the boiling point with a concentrated solution of potassium carbonate, acidify with acetic acid, and concentrate again to a thick syrup. Upon the addition of 50 per cent, acetic acid, acid potassium saccharate sepa rates out. Filter at the pump and recrystaUise from a small quantity of hot water to remove the attendant oxahc acid. It is necessary to isolate the saccharic acid as the acid potassium salt since the acid is very soluble in water. The purity may be confirmed by conversion into the silver salt (Section 111,103) and determination of the silver content by ignition. 

Add 25 g. of finely-powdered, dry acetanilide to 25 ml. of glacial acetic acid contained in a 500 ml. beaker introduce into the well-stirred mixture 92 g. (50 ml.) of concentrated sulphuric acid. The mixture becomes warm and a clear solution results. Surround the beaker with a freezing mixture of ice and salt, and stir the solution mechanically. Support a separatory funnel, containing a cold mixture of 15 -5 g. (11 ml.) of concentrated nitric acid and 12 -5 g. (7 ml.) of concentrated sulphuric acid, over the beaker. When the temperature of the solution falls to 0-2°, run in the acid mixture gradually while the temperature is maintained below 10°. After all the mixed acid has been added, remove the beaker from the freezing mixture, and allow it to stand at room temperature for 1 hour. Pour the reaction mixture on to 250 g. of crushed ice (or into 500 ml. of cold water), whereby the crude nitroacetanilide is at once precipitated. Allow to stand for 15 minutes, filter with suction on a Buchner funnel, wash it thoroughly with cold water until free from acids (test the wash water), and drain well. Recrystallise the pale yellow product from alcohol or methylated spirit (see Section IV,12 for experimental details), filter at the pump, wash with a httle cold alcohol, and dry in the air upon filter paper. [The yellow o-nitroacetanihde remains in the filtrate.] The yield of p-nitroacetanihde, a colourless crystalline sohd of m.p. 214°, is 20 g. 

Place 84 g. of iron filings and 340 ml. of water in a 1 - 5 or 2-litre bolt-head flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer. Heat the mixture to boiling, stir mechanically, and add the sodium m-nitrobenzenesulphonate in small portions during 1 hour. After each addition the mixture foams extensively a wet cloth should be applied to the neck of the flask if the mixture tends to froth over the sides. Replace from time to time the water which has evaporated so that the volume is approximately constant. When all the sodium salt has been introduced, boU the mixture for 20 minutes. Place a small drop of the suspension upon filter paper and observe the colour of the spot it should be a pale brown but not deep brown or deep yellow. If it is not appreciably coloured, add anhydrous sodium carbonate cautiously, stirring the mixture, until red litmus paper is turned blue and a test drop upon filter paper is not blackened by sodium sulphide solution. Filter at the pump and wash well with hot water. Concentrate the filtrate to about 200 ml., acidify with concentrated hydrochloric acid to Congo red, and allow to cool. Filter off the metanilic acid and dry upon filter paper. A further small quantity may be obtained by concentrating the mother liquid. The yield is 55 g. 

Dissolve 3-5 g. of aniline hydrochloride in 20 ml. of absolute ethyl alcohol contained in a 50 ml. conical flask, and add 0-5 ml. of a saturate solution of hydrogen chloride in absolute ethyl alcohol. Cool in ice and add 4 g. (4 -6 ml.) of iso-amyl nitrite (compare Section 111,53) gradually. Allow the mixture to stand for 5-10 minutes at the room temperature, and precipitate the diazonium salt by the gradual addition of ether. Filter ofiF the crystals at the pump on a small Buchner funnel, wash it with 5 ml. of alcohol - ether (1 1), and then with 10 ml. of ether. Keep... 

In a 1 5 or 2-Utre rovmd-bottomed flask, prepare cuprous chloride from 105 g. of crystallised copper sulphate as detailed in Section 11,50,1. Either wash the precipitate once by decantation or filter it at the pump and wash it with water containing a httle sulphurous acid dissolve it in 170 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid. Stopper the flask loosely (to prevent oxidation) and cool it in an ice - salt mixture whilst the diazo-tisation is being carried out.
