| Title | Unpublished paper, 'A study of the Planté lead-sulphuric acid-lead peroxide cell, from a chemical stand-point. Part II.—A discussion of the chemical changes occurring in the cell' by Henry E [Edward] Armstrong and G H Robertson |
| Creator | Robertson; G H (fl 1891) |
| Date | 1891 |
| Description | Armstrong and Robertson conclude that the cooling observed in the Planté cell can only be explained as resulting from the dissociation of the dilute sulphuric acid; and as the values given by Ayrton, Lamb, Smith, and Woods are in practical agreement with those calculated on the assumption that the acid used is sulphuric acid itself, H2SO4, that in all probability such acid and not the dilute acid contained in the cell is operative throughout.
Annotations in pencil and ink throughout.
