✦ Synopsis
yet, n triicc of 1)isniuth sitfliccs to n1)olish tlie conductivity of gold, t lie lmt-known conductor.
An involrcd cspl:innt.ion is given of mhy 12% of miiiignnese suffices to rcndcr iron non-magnetic. Apptirent~ly Dr. lhtin is not nwnrc of thc nonnitignctic nllot,ropc of iron, nust,cnitc, and that niist enitic structures arc coninion in qitenchcd nnd nlloy steels, intlcpcntlcntly of thcir mnngrincsc content. Xitrogcn is nccorilctl :i frcc clcctron to account for its nllcgctl iiietnllicity, 1)ut the frcc clcctron is tlcnicd to ciirboii, osygcn, iintl sulphur, Ilut iiccordcd to fluorine. Js not cnrbon ctilled plunibngo with sonic retison ? 12ohr's thcory is clcriclctl on thc ground of the ad hoc nssuniptions of stiibility for tlic numbcrs 2, 8, IS, :itid 32.
