Abstract
LONDON. Physical Society, November 25.—Mr. Shelford Bidwell, F.R.S., President, in the chair.—Mr. R. A. Lehfeldt read a paper on the properties of liquid mixtures, being Part iii. of his communications on that subject. It deals with partially mis-cible liquids. Measurements are given of the vapour-pressure of mixtures of phenol and water. This pair of liquids is completely miscible above 68° C., and incompletely miscible below that temperature. The law of equilibrium between incomplete mixtures and the vapour over them is investigated, especially at “the critical point,” i.e. at the point where incomplete miscibility passes over into complete miscibility.
