A singular property' of platinam amalgam was discovered by Prof. Moissan just before his death. After moreury and water are shaken together they speedily separate into distinct ¡layers, but if the moreury contains platinum in solution the mass swells to abont tire timerits original volume, forming an emulsion that gives uo sign of change after wolvo wouts. The microscoposhows it to come t of wingle globales of metel and water. Even when boiled in water or cooled to 80 deg. below zero there is no separation. The effect is the same with ulcciol, ether, amouis solution, turpentine oil or chloroform instead of water, but not with benzene. Amalgams of silver, gold and copper separate from water as readily as pure merguy.
