Extensive monitoring of the chemistry of precipitation is now available fi-om networks in both North America and Europe. Representative values of the major soluble species that account for most of the measured conductance of the samples at three United States sites are shown in (Table I) (77). It will be noted that the acidity, which is measured directly as pH, is due primarily to the presence of nitrate and sulphate ions that are not balanced by associated cations. While direct pH measurements are a valid measure of precipitation acidity, Reuss (18) has proposed that a balance of the principle ionic species, as in Equation 1 would provide a more appropriate definition of the acidity in relation to possible ecosystem responses. 

Urea-formaldehyde reaction products, usually called ureaform, are produced by about six manufacturers in the United States and several other countries. Unlike IBDU and CDU, ureaform is not a definite chemical compound. It contains methylene ureas of different chain lengths the solubility increases with decrease in chain length. It usually contains about 38 percent nitrogen. 

In general, it is fair to state that one of the major difficulties in interpreting, and consequently in establishing definitive tests of, corrosion phenomena in fused metal or salt environments is the large influence of very small, and therefore not easily controlled, variations in solubility, impurity concentration, temperature gradient, etc. . For example, the solubility of iron in liquid mercury is of the order of 5 x 10 at 649°C, and static tests show iron and steel to be practically unaltered by exposure to mercury. Nevertheless, in mercury boiler service, severe operating difficulties were encountered owing to the mass transfer of iron from the hot to the cold portions of the unit. Another minute variation was found substantially to alleviate the problem the presence of 10 ppm of titanium in the mercury reduced the rate of attack to an inappreciable value at 650°C as little as 1 ppm of titanium was similarly effective at 454°C . 

Sigma (a) bonds Sigma bonds have the orbital overlap on a line drawn between the two nuclei, simple cubic unit cell The simple cubic unit cell has particles located at the corners of a simple cube, single displacement (replacement) reactions Single displacement reactions are reactions in which atoms of an element replace the atoms of another element in a compound, solid A solid is a state of matter that has both a definite shape and a definite volume, solubility product constant (/ p) The solubility product constant is the equilibrium constant associated with sparingly soluble salts and is the product of the ionic concentrations, each one raised to the power of the coefficient in the balanced chemical equation, solute The solute is the component of the solution that is there in smallest amount, solution A solution is defined as a homogeneous mixture composed of solvent and one or more solutes. 

It was concluded that definition of asphaltenes based only on solubility is not a satisfactory criterion and that the behavior of asphaltenes in chromatographic separations is incompatible with such structures where the polymer units are interconnected predominantly by a-bonds. The asphaltenes are a complex state of aggregation best represented by the stacked cluster structure (micelle), which, however, cannot explain some of the GPC behavior of very dilute asphaltene solutions. 

Powder. Loses its biological activity even in the dry state. Isoelec pt pH 2.60-2.65. Soluble in water, dil alcohol, dit glycerol and glycols. The hormone seems most stable in neutral or slightly alkaline soln. A water soln contg 0.1 mg/ml (no buffers added) remained unchanged for 2 days at 37. while solns buffered with sodium acetate to pH 4.5 lost 50% of thdr activity. For a definition of International Units of PMSG consult Thayer. Vitamins and Hormones, vol. IV, 312 (1946). Usually 0.25 mg = l I.U. 1000 I.U. = 50 rat units.
