The theory presented in an earlier paper is here developed as a method for the evaluation of' true dipole moments from data obtained from solutions in polar solvents. As illustrations, the new method is applied to values relating to solutions of several substances in chloroform, chlorobenzene, and nitrobenzene. The results, considering the nature of the problem, are satisfactory. The accuracy is greatest when the solute is highly polar and the dielectric constant of the solvent small. Aqueous solutions of pyridine and of two amino acids are also considered. In the latter cases especially, the predicted dipole moments agree most favourably with anticipated values obtained for the zwitterions by multiplying the electronic charge by the expected charge separation.

Abstract The dielectric constant ε' and dielectric loss ε" are measured for concentrated solutions of n-dodecanol and n-octanol with five non-polar solvents at five frequencies between 2 and 400 MHz at three temperatures between 20 and 60 °C. The effective dipole moments have been calculated and found to decrease with increasing dilution. The relaxation times of the concentrated solutions are lower than that of the pure alcohols, decrease with dilution and are dependent on the nature of the non-polar solvents.

The atomic force microscope (AFM) is an instrument that can be used to image many samples of interest in biology and medicine. Images of polymerized amino acids, polyalanine and polyphenylalanine demonstrate the potential of the AFM for revealing the structure of molecules. Images of the protein fibrinogen which agree with TEM images demonstrate that the AFM can provide topographical data on larger molecules. Finally, images of DNA suggest the AFM may soon provide an easier and faster technique for DNA sequencing.The AFM consists of a microfabricated SiO2 triangular shaped cantilever with a diamond tip affixed at the elbow to act as a probe. The sample is mounted on a electronically driven piezoelectric crystal. It is then placed in contact with the tip and scanned. The topography of the surface causes minute deflections in the 100 μm long cantilever which are detected using an optical lever.

Until quite recently no satisfactory equation had been obtained for the representation of the viscosity of dilute solutions of strong electrolytes. An empirical equation was recently proposed by Jones and Dole to fit the only accurate data then available. Their equation may be represented thus : η = 1 + A √ c + B c , η = relative viscosity of the solution c = concentration in moles per litre A and B are constants. Jones and Dole realized that the coefficient A is due to interionic forces and in a series of later publications Falkenhagen, Dole and Vernon have deduced a theoretical equation giving values of A in terms of well-known physical constants. Their complete equation may be written η = 1 + ε √N v 1 z 1 /30η 0 √1000D k T ( z 1 + z 2 ) 4 π × [¼ μ 1 z 2 + μ 2 z 1 / μ 1 μ 2 - z 1 z 2 (μ 1 - μ 2 ) 2 /μ 1 μ 2 (√μ 1 z 1 + μ 2 z 2 + √(μ 1 + μ 2 ) ( z 1 + z 2 ) ) 2 ]√ c , where N = Avogadro's number v 1 , v 2 = numbers of ions z 1 , z 2 = valencies of ions μ 1 , μ 2 = absolute mobilities of ions D = dielectric constant of solvent k = Boltzmann's constant ε = electronic charge η 0 = viscosity of solvent T = absolute temperature.
