Abstract
Part I
1. The distribution of alcohol between benzene and aqueous solutions of (1) sulfuric acid, (2) sodium sulfate, and (3) mixtures of perchloric acid and sodium perchlorate has been studied.
2. Apparent values of equilibrium constants for the formation of oxonium salts in aqueous solutions have been calculated.
Part II
1. It has been established that oxygen exerts an inhibiting effect in the formation of the complex compounds of mercury which catalyze the hydration of acetylene.
2. The hydration of acetylene has been shown to be of first order with respect to acetylene.
3. The conditions for the rapid determination of acetylene in the presence of oxygen by the bromate-bromide method have been determined.
