(6) The Rate of Reaction in Solutions containing Potassium 
Chlorate, Potassium Iodide, and Hydrochloric Acid:— Mr. W. C. Bray. 
Experiments showing that two reactions of the fourth order occur 
simultaneously. Schlundt’s results are recalculated. 
(7) The Rate of the Reaction between Arsenious Acid and Iodine in 
Acid Solution; the Rate of the Reverse Reaction; and the Equilibrium 
between them:— Mr. J. R. Roebuck. Experiments to test the theory 
of Kinetic Equilibrium. (Jour. Phys. Chem., VI., 365.) 
(8) The “ Compensation Method” of Measuring the Rate of Oxida- 
tion of Iodides:—Mr. J. M. Bell. The method was introduced by 
Harcourt, using sodium peroxide as oxidizing agent; it is not applic- 
able when chloric acid, chromic acid, or ferric salts are employed. 
Schiikarew’s assumptions (Zeit. phys. Chem. XXXVIII 357), are 
not justifiable.
