AB - PURIFICATION OF WATER BY DISTII,I,ATIOK BY G. A. HULETT, Ordinary distilled water suffices for aliiiost all analytical pur- poses, but for atoinic-weight work atid iiiany operations in physics water of a higher degree of purity is required. There seems to be little definite inforniation as to apparatus and methods. Stas dis- tilled his water from an alkaline solution of potassium pernianganate after rejecting I/'2otli, but still fotuid ammonia. After distilling in a platinum condenser from potassium bisulpliate and condensing he fou~icl it n~lioll!. free froin organic and mineral matter. Kolil- rauscli' in preparing pure water, used potassium permanganate. potas- sium lijdroxide aid potassium bisulpliate, in order to get rid of org:tnic matter, volatile acids aid ammonia ; while hTeriist' suggests purifying water 11j. recr).stallization. In tlie present itir,estigatioti tlie apparatus used possesses sollie points of acl\rantage over that ordinarily eniployed. The condenser is a platinuni tube 19 iiiiii. in cliain- eter, and ahout 60 cni. long. At tlie lower elid the tulle is contracted to 5 iiirii. diameter, and bent so as to pass into the neck of tlie receiv- ing flask, thus preiwiting the clis- tillate from coining iii contact with the air about the still.
