examination. Instructed by his experiments, and rendered competent
by them to distinguish between primary and secondary results, he

Decomposition.'
Into the same circuit he introduced his voltameter, which consisted
of a graduated tube filled with acidulated water and provided with
platinum plates for the decomposition of the water, and also a cell
containing chloride of tin. Experiments already referred to had
taught him that this substance, though an insulator when solid, is a
conductor when fused, the passage of the current being always
