BARMNM PRESENT PAPERS Scientific Faculty Members Ad dress Meeting of Elisha Mitchell Society. Two papers were presented at the meeting of the Elisha Mit chell scientific society Tuesday night. E. S. Barr of the phy sics department spoke on "In f rared Study of some Inorganic Acids," and A. M. White of the department of chemical engi neering addressed the group on "The Power Consumption of Agitators." Barr told of experiments that he and Dr. E. K. Plyler have been conducting with regard to the light absorption of solutions of acids in water. In the car rying out of these experiments it was first necessary to obtain cells of the solution in a suf ficiently thin layer to bring out the effects; these layers, . how ever, must not be too thin. Af ter much experimentation it was found that only layers varying in tnicioiess irom u.imm to 0.001mm could be used. . Light Absorbed The infrared rays of light which had ben passed through a prism were then allowed to pass through the layers of the solu tion. By means of special in struments it was possible to de termine the degree of light ab sorption. By means of the inter pretation of this absorption which was located at two differ ent frequencies of radiation which had not previously been discovered, the physicists have been able to throw considerable Jight on the subject of action of substances dissolved in water and on the combinations which are formed unaer xnose cir cumstances.
