which was to work saccess or failure
upon the part of the senior class of '
Chemical Engieeetfng.
At. - eleven lu’cloek on Thursday
morning of February 5th everything j
was prepaxu^ {for action snd by one
o'clock the still was hot enough to
distill over its first catch. The tern- |
perature at jthfs point waa 276 de
grees Fahrenheit and when the tem
perature reached 325 degrees the first
fraction, which comprises the low
boiling poiat distillates, was stopped
and the second fraction caught, there
after after ch^tge of 50 degrees in
temperature a catch was made. Th*
first fraction was 1.45 percent of the
total hatch and sp. gr. was 54 : Be. I
Fractions of the following percent
were taken:
