The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Referee's report by William Ramsay, on a paper 'On a new method of determining the vapour pressures of solutions' by E B H Wade

Reference number: RR/13/300

Date: 05 May 1897

Description

Recommended for publication in Proceedings to make the results known. The paper seems to have been put together in a hurry and the author should perhaps wait until he has a larger number of results before full publication. The work is careful and good but it is hard to guarantee that the substances used are pure.

Subject: Chemistry

[Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society, 1897].
