Abstract
The magnetic susceptibility of four samples of pure vanadium metal, prepared by different methods, has been measured at 20, 77 and 293°k. The most reliable values obtained are 5·89, 5·88 and 5·81 × 10−6 e.m.u./g respectively. There appears to be no systematic dependence of susceptibility on the method of preparation but the values obtained are appreciably larger than those reported by previous workers. The reason for this difference is discussed in terms of the impurity contents of the vanadium used in the earlier work.
