From analogies between Rb(and its salts) and the metals of the al. kalis, the formulæ RbCI, Rb,O, &c. are most probably correct : if so, the atomic weight of Rb is to be taken as equal to its combining weight. Sr. The atomic weight of strontium must be taken as 4365 X 2 = 87'3 if the formula of its salts are to become analogous to those of the Ba and Ca salts. Yt. Atomic weight probably = 29*87 x3 = 89'6 because of analogy of Yt salts with those of earth metals. 3132 zirconium fluoride niobium oxyfluoride chloride and pentachloride 95.8 19*16 M.

Notes to Table of Atomic Weights. B. This column (vi.) is not to be regarded as containing anything like a A complete account of all researches on this subject will be found in A Ricalculation of the Alomic Weights, by F. W. Clarke [Part v. of the Constants of Nature published by the Smithsonian Institution), and also in Die Atomgewichte der Elemente, by L. Meyer and K. Seubert [Leipzig, 1883]. C. When the atomic weight given in column V. section (2) is a multiple of the combining number in column vii., no number being given in section (1) of column V., it is to be inferred that, besides the argument drawn from the value of the specific heat of the element in question, there are other chemical reasons for adopting the special multiple which appears in v. (2): these reasons may be broadly described as based on analogies between salts of the given element and salts of other elements, the atomic weights of which have been established by the two leading physical methods. |
