Extract

Twenty-two years have passed since the atomic weight of platinum was studied by Dittmar and M'Arthur. This is the last investigation recorded which has been concerned with the value of this constant.

During the intervening period, as the result of many investigations carried on by Professor T. W. Richards and his students, the accuracy with which many of the’ manipulations incident to atomic weight investigations can be executed has been greatly increased. Perhaps of still greater importance, methods for the preparation of many compounds of undoubted purity have been devised, and the principles underlying the preparation of pure substances have been clearly set forth.
