Extract

The alkali metals, sodium, potassium and rubidium can be distilled easily in a good vacuum and obtained reasonably free from occluded gas in the following way. As potassium is now used for the absorption of mercury vapour and many experiments are being done on the others, an account of a convenient way of preparing pure specimens may be of some service to experimenters.
