Abstract
AMONG the many new tables that have been included in this, the sixth, issue of this quadrennial compendium of numerical information, are those of isotopes, hydrogen-ion concentrations, iso-electric points of proteins, vapour pressures of hydrated salt systems and detailed properties of lead and mercury. The general features of the volume remain unaltered; revision and correction have been effected where necessary, notably wherever the atomic weight of antimony is involved.
