The Viscosity Of Liquids, Mary Bede Brielmaier Jul 1931

The Viscosity Of Liquids, Mary Bede Brielmaier

Bachelors’ Theses

This thesis contains a review of the principal methods of determining the viscosity of liquids, with an experimental investigation of the oscillating disk method.


A Study Of The Temperature Of The Vapor Above A Boiling Salt Solution, Leo Wilson Scott Jun 1931

A Study Of The Temperature Of The Vapor Above A Boiling Salt Solution, Leo Wilson Scott

Honors Theses

The problem of temperature of the vapor over a boiling salt solution, has attracted a great deal of interest in the past, due partly to the conflicting data to be had and to the apparent paradox in the statement of Michael Faraday "that the temperature of the vapor over a boiling solution was the same as it would be over the boiling pure solvent."


The Effect Of Amines On The Setting Time Of Silicic Acid Gels, Phillip Holmes Dewey Jun 1931

The Effect Of Amines On The Setting Time Of Silicic Acid Gels, Phillip Holmes Dewey

Honors Theses

It is known that when sodium silicate solution and an acid are mixed, a gel is sooner or later formed. The speed of gelation depends on a number of factors. The fundamental factors on which gelation depends are- (l) The concentration of water glass (2) The concentration of acid (3) Agitation (4) Temperature In this work, these four factors were kept as constant as possible. It is also known that the presence of NH3 considerably reduces the time of set. In this work, the effect of CH3 NH2, which is closely related to NH3, was studied. The effect of methyl …


Solubility Curves Of Various Commercial Waxes In Several Organic Solvents, Lawson Joseph Ford Jun 1931

Solubility Curves Of Various Commercial Waxes In Several Organic Solvents, Lawson Joseph Ford

Bachelors’ Theses

The introduction contained herein is- merely meant to acquaint the reader with the common waxes. The subject matter itself has been purposely condensed. For more detailed accounts references are made to well known authorities throughout.


A Preliminary Study Of Electrical Conductivity In Silicic Acid Gels, Rudolph C. Ferguson Jan 1931

A Preliminary Study Of Electrical Conductivity In Silicic Acid Gels, Rudolph C. Ferguson

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

In this project the author has attempted to determine the specific conductance of a gel of known composition; the changes, if any, of conductance in a gel as it sets; and the changes in conductance due to the diffusing of an electrolyte through the gel.

Reactions Between The Stannous And Arsenate Ions In Silicic Acid Gels, Willard Merle Farr Jan 1931

Reactions Between The Stannous And Arsenate Ions In Silicic Acid Gels, Willard Merle Farr

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Observation of crystal growths resulting from the chemical interaction of stannous chloride and sodium arsenate in silicic acid gels revealed the following very interesting fact. Gels identical in every respect except acidity, contained crystal growths varying greatly in appearance.

The purpose of this investigation was, therefore, to allow stannous and arsenate ion to combine in a series of accurately prepared gels, identical in all respects except the acid content, and to observe the effect upon crystal growth of: (1) varying the acid concentration; and (2) varying the kind of acid
