- W4247929985 abstract "American Journal of Science, May.—Some experiments with endothermic gases, by W. G. Mixter. The endothermic gases operated upon were acetylene, cyanogen, and nitrous and nitric oxides. A beautiful experiment described is one in which acetylene is decomposed at a dull red heat. The gas issues from a narrow tube into a wider tube, heated by a Bunsen burner. When the glass begins to glow there is a slight puff, and the stream of gas issuing from the narrow tube glows, or rather the carbon particles glow in it with the heat of dissociation of the acetylene.—A hypothesis to explain the partial non-explosive combination of explosive gases and gaseous mixtures, by W. G. Mixter. Detonating gas, a mixture of carbonic oxide and oxygen, one of cyanogen and oxygen, and other explosive mixtures of gases, do not explode below certain pressures when sparked. Explosions do not occur because of the infrequency of impacts of molecules having a velocity or internal energy adequate for chemical union. Some of the molecules combine, but the heat of their union is not sufficient to restore the energy lost by radiation, and the change is therefore not self-propagating.—Occurrence of palæotrochis in volcanic rocks in Mexico, by H. S. Williams. Origin of palæotrochis, by J. S. Diller. These two papers effectually dispose of the hypothesis of the organic origin of the siliceous formations described by Emmons as due to some primordial coral. Prof. Williams describes some specimens coming from an old eroded volcanic cone made up of altered porphyry and volcanic tuffs, situated north-east of Guanajuato in the Santa Rosa mountains. A microscopical study of thin sections reveals the fact that the nodules are spherulites, a common feature of acid igneous rocks.—Association of argillaceous rocks with quartz veins in the region of Diamantina, Brazil, by O. A. Derby. Red clay is always associated with the quartz veins of the diamond region of Minas Geraes, Brazil. The author describes a remarkable layer of that kind, one to two metres thick, which has received from the miners the name of Guia (Guide), because, as they state, diamonds were to be looked for below the outcrop of this layer, and not above it.—Volatilisation of the iron chlorides in analysis, and the separation of the oxides of iron and aluminium, by F. A. Gooch and F. S. Havens. The fact that ferric oxide is completely volatile in HCI gas applied at once at a temperature of 500°, and at 200° if the acid carries a little chlorine, opens the way to many analytical separations of iron, notably to the separation of intermixed iron and aluminium oxides.—Preliminary note as to the cause of root pressure, by R. G. Leavitt. The author applies the latest researches on osmotic pressure to the known facts of plant physiology." @default.
