INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. Silver prints of "photographs" may be ordered at additional charge by writing the Order Department, giving the catalog number, title, author and specific pages you wish reproduced. 5. PLEASE NOTE: Some pages may have indistinct print. Filmed as received.

Hie 25* and 45° isotherms of the systeu HpS04-NapS04- HpO were studied in order to compere this system with the system ZigvSC^-lfesSO^HpO, studied by itioci and Simons^-. Ihe 10*, 25* and 45* isotherna of the system K^so^- TIpSC4-KgO were studied to determine whether or not solid solutions fora tetv.esa potassium and thallous sulfate, in view of the sim ilarity in else of potassium and thallous ions* Hie system GUSO4-H pSO4-Iip0, 23* was skiaied at 25“ to determine the solubility relations of the compound H.PSO4. CU3O4.6H2O, vihoi© solubility at 25* was reported by Looke*-. Hi is system is a part of both of the quaternary systems ithioh were studied. 'Jhe quaternary syaten, CUSO4-'UpSO4- (M4)pSC^-HpO, was studied at 25* in order to determine whether or not solid solutions would be formed between CUSO4. (1^14)2-04.6HgO and CUSO4. 33.gSG4.6HpO. Hi® qur si-ternary system &1SO4. HPSO4- CUSO4.(NE^JpSC^-HpO was studied at 25* as part of this work. 6 Sim ilarly, the quaternary system, OuSO^-Hp.SO^KgSO^BgO, was studied at 25* to determine whether or not solid solutions would be formed between GUSO4. lip,SO4.6EgQ and GuSO4.tHpSO4.6BgO* HlO The quasi-ternary system CUSO4. H;>S04-UuSG4.K.gS04-/wae included In this investigation. 7 Analytical Procedure h leotrolytlo Anal yeea of Copper Tha eleotrodepoeltion of copper, on a rotating platinum cathode, was performed frcm a solution acidified with sulfuric acid and nitrio acid, which had been boiled free of nitrogen dioxide. The instrument used for the analysis was the Sergeant, Slowin eleotrolytlo analyzer. Qhe analysis was oheekec using weighed samples of electrolytic "Kchlbaum" copier, which were dissolved in nitric acid. The recovery of the copper was 100.0$. It was found; that when thallous ion was present in a cuprie ion solution it interfered with the electrolytic analysis of copper, ivhen the electrolysis was performed in an alkaline solution a oopioue brown precipitate, which was most likely thallic oxide, was deposited on the anode. The current, which was 2.5 amperes at the sta rt c£ the electrolysis, fell to 0.2-0.3 amperes when the deposition on the anode appeared. In acid solution a alight darkening of the anode, along with marked decrease in the current, was noted. It was thus concluded that the interference of thallous ion with the electrolysis of oopper was due to an anodio reaction, vhich caused a polarization of the electrode. The decrease in current markedly slowed up the deposition of copper. Due to the interference of thallous ion with the eleotrolytlo deposition of copper, and also due to the low percentage of copper 8 in some of the saturated solutions which were analyzed, it was necessary to use some other . e- ns of determining copper in the presence of th&IIium. Iodoaetrlo Determination of Copper She iodo..fctric prooeuure, as described by lolthoff and Scndell , was employed. eighed simples of the Kahlbaum copper were dissolved in n itric acid, followed by n eu tralist ion with NE4.OII, Five ml. of glacial acetic acid were added, followed by the addition of excess El. The liberated iodine was titrated with 0.1N NarSgOg solution, using starch as an indicator. A few drops of nitrobenzene3 viort added to revent adsorption of iodine on the precipitate of cuprous iodide. She standard CuSO^.SE^O powder was again analyzed using the O.IN Na^SgOg standard solution. She iurity of the CvuSC^.SHgO, as before, was found to be 99.9',. OUSO4.5H2O. Potent!oaetrio, lodametrio Determination of Copper Shallivu:. interferes with the observation of the starch iodine end point because of the yellow green preoipit:.,te due to a 00 im.tion of 'HI and Cul. It w s thus necessary to detect the enu point of the iodow.etric analysis potentio etrioally using a Beckman reee- rch model G- pE meter. Platinum and calomel electrodes ’were used as the indie , tor electrodes. She titix tion curve for the ; otantio. etric c.n lysis is shewn on graph I. She inflection in the curve occurs at 0.19
