Abstract

In a paper communicated to the Nova Scotian Institute of Natural Science,* Professor MacGregor has shown that in the case of weak aqueous solutions of certain hydroxides, the volume of a solution is less than the volume of water used in its preparation. At his suggestion I have investigated the hydroxides of sodium, barium, and strontium, to ascertain whether they exhibit this property, and how the excess of the volume of solution over the volume of constituent water varies with the temperature. From the observations made, I have also determined the thermal expansion coefficients, and found how they vary with temperature and with concentration.
