- Description: [From Introduction]. In 1955, Dry and Gledhill, both formerly of this Department, published their paper on the Solubility of Mercurous Chloride in Water at 25°0, and it was originally intended that this thesis should be an extension of the study to cover the temperature range from 5 t o 55°0. A preliminary investigation at 25°0, however, failed to yield results which were consistent with their findings, even though their apparatus and experimental technique were used. In an effort to resolve these difficulties their method of saturating the calomel in the conductance cell was thoroughly investigated, and as this procedure was found to be responsible, it was necessary to evolve an entirely new approach. The technique finally adopted was to saturate the mercurous chloride solutions by mechanical stirring in siliconed vessels and to carry out the conductance, pH, and total mercury concentration measurements on the filter ed solution. This method gave good results, and was free from the many extrapolations prevalent in the original procedure.

- Description: After the publication of the paper by Gledhill and Malan in which precision conductance techniques were used for the first time in the determination of the solubility of silver chloride, Dr. N.H. Perton of Christchurch College, New Zealand, wrote to Gledhill and suggested that the same methods might be rewarding if applied to the determination of the solubility of mercurous chloride. A review of the Chemical literature showed that the values for the solubility of mercurous chloride were not at all consistent. Into., p. 1
