Abstract
LONDON Royal Society, December 8.—“On the Electrolytic Diffusion of Liquids,” by G. Gore, LL.D., F.R.S. In this communication the author has described an apparatus, and an attempt made with it, to ascertain more definitely than he was able in a previous research (on “the Influence of Voltaic Currents on the Diffusion of Liquids,” Proc. Roy. Soc., No. 213, 1881) whether, when an electric current is passed vertically through the boundary surface of mutual contact of two electrolytes lying upon each other in a narrow vertical glass tube, the mass of either of the liquids expands or moves as a whole in the line of the current, and also to obtain additional data to assist in explaining the phenomena observed in the previous research.
