Excerpt from Johns Hopkins University Circulars, Vol. 19: June, 1900 The solution of sodium and potassium also conducted, but also to a small extent compared with the ammonia solutions. There was some polariza tion, but it was very small, and is easily explained by the presence of the amide which is constantly being formed. It may also be noted that sulphur in methyl amine conducts the current, but with marked polarization and with decomposition of the solution. The products of this decomposition have not been studied.
