An equation is derived for the time rate of change of composition of a binary gas mixture of initially uniform composition by thermal diffusion in an apparatus consisting of two chambers, one above the other, connected by a straight tube. The upper chamber is held at a given constant high temperature and the lower chamber at a given constant lower temperature.

Using the thermal conductivity method of analysis the rate of change of composition in the lower chamber has been measured for carbon dioxide-hydrogen mixtures for various compositions, pressures and higher temperatures.

From the experimental results and the derived equation, values are determined for the thermal diffusion coefficient, the ordinary or concentration diffusion coefficient and the temperature exponent for these coefficients.

  1. It has been shown that carbon tetrachloride is not decomposed by light of wavelength 2537 ångstroms.

    1. It has been shown that light of wavelength 2537 ångstroms produces an oxidation of carbon tetrachloride according to the reaction

      CCl4 + ½O2 → COCl2 + Cl2

      It has been shown that one molecule of carbon tetrachloride is decomposed per quantum of light absorbed. A possible mechanism for this reaction has been given.

      1. The difficulty of purifying carbon tetrachloride for photochemical work has been pointed out.

        1. Evidence suggesting a photochemical hydrolysis of carbon tetrachloride has been given.
