Abstract
Aqueous formaldehyde solutions of mole fraction from 0.05 to 0.20 were studied by Raman spectroscopy at temperatures up to 180 Β°C. The previously unreported Raman spectrum of formaldehyde under its nonβhydrated form H~2~CO has been identified, in addition to the already known bands from methanediol CH~2~(OH)~2~ and poly(oxymethylene)glycols HO(CH~2~O)~n~H formed by hydration and subsequent polymerization of the formaldehyde molecules. The experimental spectrum of formaldehyde in solutions agrees perfectly with the theoretical calculations. Copyright Β© 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

## Abstract Resonance Raman spectra of nine sulfophthalein dyes have been measured in aqueous solutions at various pH values between 4.0 and 11.0. Raman band assignments have been carried out by referring to the spectra of related compounds and the band shifts of Phenol Red on deuteration of the tw
Dry carbonic acid has recently been shown to be kinetically stable even at room temperature. Addition of water molecules reduces this stability significantly, and the decomposition (H2CO3 + nH2O --> (n+1)H2O + CO2) is extremely accelerated for n = 1, 2, 3. By including two water molecules, a reactio
