The latitudes and longitudes of the different points or capes, seem to have been very correctly determined by Captains Cook and Furneaux, when they were here; it would therefore be superfluous to mention them here from any other authority; they have settled them as under: South-west cape lat 43 37 00 S. long 146 07 00 E. of Greenwich South cape lat 43 42 00 long 146 56 00 Tasman's-head lat 43 33 00 long 147 28 00 Swilly Island, or rock lat 43 55 00 long 147 06 00 Adventure bay lat 42 21 20 long 147 29 00
What volume of a solution of sodium hydrogen phosphate, containing 90 grams of Na HPO .12H O per liter, would be required to precipitate the zinc as ZnNH PO and what weight of precipitate would be obtained? A sample of magnesium carbonate, contaminated with SiO as its only impurity, weighs 0.5000 gram and loses 0.1000 gram on ignition. !Answer!: 9.07 cc.
