1898Best.-Nr. 44238London Taylor and Francis 1898 No wrappers. In "Proceedings of the Royal Society of London." Vol.63 Nos. 399-400 both issues offered. Pp. 373-480 a. 5 plates. Ransay & Travers' paper: pp. 405-408. First appearance of the paper in which Ramsay and Travers announced their discovery of a new element which they named "krypton" meaning hidden."Dr. William Hampson presented them Ransay & Travers with about a liter of liquid air which they used not for liquefying the argon but for obstaining sufficient skill in manipulation so that they would not risk loosing their precious fifteen liter of argon.The residue left after most of the liquid air had boliled away consisted largly of oxygen and nitrogen which Ramsay and Travers temoved with red-hot copper and magnesium. .they then examined the twenty-five cibic centimeters of residual gas and when they found it to be inerst they immediately placedit in a Pl'ucker tube connected to and induction coil and observed its spectrum. There was a bright yelælow line with a greener tint than that of the helium line and a brilliant green line that did nor coincide with any line of argon helium mercury or hydrogen. They discoverede this gas on 30 May 1898 and named it 'krypton'.they found that it belonged between bromine and rubidium in the periodic table and so great was their excitement that the younger chemist almost forgot about his examination for doctor of sciwence which had been schedules for the next day."Weeks p. 267.Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1898 C. unknown

Pp. 1017-1076 and pp. 1387-1462. Raoult's papers: pp. 1030-33 tome 95 and pp. 1430-1433 tome 104. First appearance of Raoult's two importent papers in which described a method for finding the molecular weight of an organic compound by the determination of the lowering of the freezing point of water that resulted from dissolving that compound in water and the law governing the relation between solutes and vapor pressure."Then in 1882 F.-M. Raoult published his results on the effects of nondissociating organic solutes from which he deduced a general law controlling the lowering of freezing points the first paper offered. Four years later he extended this work to show the effect of solutes on vapor pressure the second paper offered. Having established the effect of nondissociating compounds he was in position to show that salts produced an eeffect which though anomalous could nevertheless be explained by the supposition that a dissolved molecule broke up into other molecules. This work was of great value in supplying a new method for determining molecular weights since the depression of freezing point and vapor pressure as well a the related rise in boiling point later discovered are proportional to the moleculat concentrations ofthe solutions; it was of equal value in supporting the ideas of van't Hoff on osmotic pressure. With the announcement of the dissociation theory of Arrhenius the anomalies were explained and the full significance of the generalizations of Raoult was recognized. Raoult published the formulations of his laws in the "Comptes Rendus" for 1882 and 1887 the papers offered" Leicester a. Klickstein "A Source Book in Chemistry" pp. 471 ff. unknown

First printing of this importent paper in the history of chemistry Lord Rayleigh's most famous discovery announcing the discovery of this new gas the first finding of one of the rare gases inert gases having unusual properties and forming a distinct group in the periodic table and all with zero valency."The original paper in the "Philosophical Transactions" will undoubtly rank as a classic the investigation having been a particularly brilliant ine." Ernst von Meyer in History of Chemistry. For this discovery Lord Rayleigh and W. Ramsay received the Nobel Prize 1904.After having made several measuring of the densities of gases "Rayleigh came across a curious puzzle. With oxygen he always obtained the same density regardless of how the oxygen might be produced whether from one particular compound from a second compound or from the air. The situation was different with nitrogen. The nitrogen he obtained from air constantly showed a slightly higher density than the nitrogen he obtained from any of various compounds. Rayleigh could think of several ways in which the nitrogen obtained from air might be contaminated but none of the possibilities checked out experimentally. He was so frustrated that he went so far as to write to the journal "Nature" asking for suggestions. Ramsay a brilliant Scottish chemist asked permission to tackle the problem and received it. The upshot was that a new gas somewhat denser that nitrogen was discovered to exist in the atmosphere. It was named argon and it was the first of a series of rare gases of unusual properties whose existence had never been suspected."Asimow.Dibner Heralds of Science No. 50 - Neville Historical Chemical Library vol.
