Measurement of the Electrical Conductivity of Electrolytes

Abstract

IN NATURE of Mar. 21, p. 441, M. Lecomte du Noüy outlines improvements in the method commonly used to measure the electrical conductivity of electrolytes. We are particularly interested in this communication, and think it may be worth while to record that we are making a series of such determinations on solutions of phenol in water, using these modifications, but with the further refinement of a Wagner earthing device. We hope to publish results shortly.
