Abstract
To examine the general solvent properties of anhydrous liquefied ammonia, and to detect any manifest chemical reactions between it and various substances, I employed precisely the same kind of method as that I used in examining liquid cyanogen (see Proc. Roy. Soc. vol. xx. p. 67). It was desirable in these experiments not to use flint-glass tubes, because the tenacity of that substance is so feeble the tubes burst by the pressure of the gutta-percha stoppers; when such tubes were employed, the mouths of them had to be closed by fusion.
